ZONI BEACH AREA: Zoni Beach is a mile long sand beach located on the secluded eastern coast of Culebra.

The high quality zoning has designated most of the east end either 25 or 5 acres per house zoning.

Zoni Beach faces St Thomas, Culebrita, and Cayo Norte and the water is normally calm. Typically during the winter season Zoni Beach has about 30-50 visitors, however many times you can be the only person. The nearest commercial building is back over four miles on a paved country type road. Zoni Beach is a timeless treasure. As for the past thousands of years, the Leatherback Turtles come back each year to nest. The nesting is done at night during late March to July. We ask that you respect their Zoni legacy as it is they that keep this treasure timeless. The Leatherback Turtles are an endangered species and are protected by the Endangered Species Act. Therefore- now and forever there should be NO building on Zoni Beach.
