Isabel Segundo is the bigger of the two towns on Vieques. It is the place where most business gets done; the post office is there as is the ferry dock. Some of its buildings date back to the 1800’s! Everything seems to be made out of concrete. The humidity, rain and winds are hard on other materials. The colors are amazing. I really enjoyed the local color palette. Dogs and cats freely roam throughout the island and are very noticeable in town. Streets and roads are narrow and not in very good shape overall and the cars reflect that.
