- Season 2, Episode 12.....
Mona Island is a small island located about 40 miles off the Western Coast of Puerto Rico and is the most remote island that we have visited yet. We ran into some hunters who were camping on the island for hunting season and welcomed us into their camp to eat and drink!! They also told us where the lobsters were located, so we went Lobster hunting.
I hope you enjoy our videos and subscribe to our family's RUclips channel to see all of our cruising adventures.

this is an example on how,you treat foreigners, Puerto Rican hospitality is AMAIZING.
If you are an american citizen, you're not a foreigner in Puerto Rico. Puerto Rico (including Mona island) is a United States territory.
MsClumsySmurf Pensé lo mismo, saludos!
@@MsClumsySmurf Americans are not foreigners in Puerto Rico but they're still gringos so pretty much.
@@MsClumsySmurf dominican did not want that,they are proud of their independence,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
MsClumsySmurf I would prefer Puerto Rico to be independent.
"Pitorro" is the original Puerto Rican Hillbilly (Jíbaro) Moonshine ☝🏾 Thank's for visiting one of our off shore islands ☝🏾 Hope ya'll enjoyed yourselves 🙏🏾🤠💞🇺🇸🇵🇷
Yup the first time I went to PR my uncle dug one up from his yard and got me drunk as hell
thank you sharing this wonderful experience. I'll drop by Mona when opportunity permits.
Thanks for sharing...... I'm from Puerto Rico....my family lived in Aguadilla.... and I lived in Florida...... but that was absolutely ....beautiful..... Safe Sailing.......
I was born and raised in Puerto Rico and to be honest...I'm scared of going to Mona island lol. It looks so much fun tho... I hope she knows pitorro is illegal 😱 🤣
Yup it is... that's puerto Rican moonshine 😂😂😂
As far as I know it's just illegal to sell and distribute but not to make for own consumption. My favorite pitorro infusion is with tamarindo, so damn tasty 😋
Pitorro being illegal is not a big deal. So is moonshine in the states and people enjoy it.
wao never been there i love my island 🇵🇷
Amazing video, the place looks beautiful!
Thanks for sharing!! 👍👍
I'm from Puerto Rico thank you for this video! 🙌🏻

Puerto Rico 💯✨ love you
Us Puerto Ricans love to feed people!!
Awesome i love my island 🇵🇷
My great grandfather was Serapio Arroyo, he was the Conservator of the Isla Mona, I have never been able to set foot in that island. I’m 42 years old. Maybe one day, it will happen but I was glad you shared this as it shows how amazing our people are- Mona is an island part of Puerto Rico such as Vieques and Culebra on the west side of the island and many other smaller tiny islands that became along with Puerto Rico a territory of the United States, we are citizens of the United States like mainland citizens of the states except we are not treated like state, we cannot vote in Presidential election unless we live in the mainland but however presides over the United States as president also governs over legislation that affects PuertoRicans in the island.
WoW ! i cant belive im first to comment, hi guys this is Tim and Terri plz keep the vids coming thanks for yall effort
Terri, Thanks for watching!! I am glad you enjoyed it. Working on the next one now. Stay tuned!!
i was there 1977 and it sure has changed ..we had to fly onto the island back then in a tiny tiny plane...i remember while flying there i saw 4 large water tornados off in the distance..sure was mighty jazz'd to land thou... and the water tower and light house were active..the light house had a ping pong table and we stayed in tiny barrack like quarters on the beach in around a lagoon..we were there for around 2 weeks and the rangers played dominos with us..it was a priceless gift to see..the honor is all mine..my name is charlie zeigler
THE MILITANTS, I bet Mona Island hasn't changed all that much in all those years. :)
God bless 🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷
Wow, beautiful! I hope to make that trek one day.
Thanks for sharing!
Looks beautiful
Beautiful!
Thank you for sharing this amazing experience... I hope one day I can visit Isla de Mona and have a great time just like you did.
Great video. I thought no one be at the Mona Island. Good to know
Beautiful Puerto Rico usa territory
Noticed that Trio is with you. Think I just got a preview of their next vid. Mono is on the list of places I must get to.. has been for a couple years.
Hi there thank you for visiting Puerto Rico ( Mona the Galapagos of the Caribbean )... Mona was discover by colombus in his 2 Trip and had always been a remote island was use by some Pirates to hide there treasures in the Mona cave's making Mona a real Pirate island ( like the island of Tortuga ) some very famous pirates had stop in Mona one of them you my not know is Roberto coferesi de Arellano a Puerto Rican pirate from the 1700 and the real inventory of the Pina colada ( forget that story that was invented in old San Juan in 1963 or in the carribe Hilton hotel in the 50's..)..i know that he use to prepare a drink for he's Man and friends before he attack a ship made of Coconut, pineapple and run. Aren't does the ingredients of the Pina colada..???...you tell me...or look in he's pirate history or at the Cabo rojo museum....by the way these not rabbits in Mona...to hunt only pig's and goats whit the occasional cat.( They are considered a pest and eat the endeger iguanas and bird's )...Mona is a wildlife reserve and study area you need a permit to camp and be in the Island ( No one out of the hunters is allowed for safety reasons that's way they use a orange vest ) you are only allow in the Sommer time in groups and is not permitted to explore out some designated areas ( Mona is a dengerus place some people have daid in Mona because they didn't fallow the safety rules )....more information from Mona in DRN of Puerto Rico...
Imagine being stuck on that island during a storm it gives me anxiety just thinking about it
it is ilegal to fish anything in Mona within a mile of the shore. it is a protected natural reserve. do your research before.
You need a government permit to even anchorage at Mona since this a protected natural reserve. Don’t promote something without all the regulations that apply.
Love my Boricua ppl weeepppaaa
i have been here at mona :)
THE MILITANTS Mona Island is a unique place that not very many people get to visit!! Thanks for watching. :)
Did you go to the side where the cliffs are? They are pretty stunning. Like Dover in the Caribbean
How many lobsters was enough?? damn. Can’t be depleting resources that much for fun.
5:27 Pitoro is very strong especially homemade.
Congrats
Mucho sabor si si
Pitorro its Moonshine for them.
I hope those hunters didn't leave garbage all around.
♥☺!
Wow no sabia que esta isla existia , nunca aparece en el mapa de los libros pero en google si
Iv hear there's no mosquitoes but are there sandflys
Dominicans use the Mona Island to get into Puerto Rico illegally .
Freptboy, FYI, you can not stop at Mona Island coming from the DR. There are park rangers that stop anyone from coming on to the island coming from the west. You can only stop at Mona Island if you are traveling East to West.
its true what Freptboy says they used to stop at mona first but damn year ago
I wanted to see the island;
Not a bunch of drunks.
____ La Isla puertorriqueña de MONA, llamada por los nuestros AMONÁ, estaba habitada por grupos de indios TAÍNOS.
____ La primera tierra puertorriqueña que recibió el impacto de la conquista y colonización española fue MONA. Su posición estratégica la convirtió en el “puente” ideal entre Boriquén (Puerto Rico) y Haití (Española), las primeras 2 colonias españolas operando en el Nuevo Mundo.
___ Aunque en realidad MONA siempre ha sido parte de Puerto Rico, desde 1514 se “incluyó” oficialmente como parte del archipiélago puertorriqueño.
___ Poca gente sabe que los españoles convirtieron a MONA desde el principio de la colonización en el Nuevo Mundo, en un CENTRO DE ABASTECIMIENTO de alimentos, vestimentas y hamacas para suplir a las nuevas colonias que iban fundando. Eso convirtió a sus habitantes nativos en los primeros taínos boriquenses sometidos a la esclavitud, ellos fueron los responsables de toda la producción (que en esos primeros años no paraba).
___ Se desarrollaron comunidades agrícolas para suplir de alimentos a los colonizadores, “atendidas” por los indios taínos que habitaban la Isla. Producían MELONES, BATATAS, YUCA, FRIJOLES, MAÍZ, TABACO, entre otros.
___ Sembraban ALGODÓN y trabajaban en una fábrica de CAMISAS, NAGUAS y HAMACAS para los colonos. En 1521 se informa de una entrega en MONA de DOCENAS DE MILES de libras de pan de casabe a colonos españoles que iban hacia Cumaná (hoy Venezuela). Oiga, eso es mucho pan ...
___ Desde esta estratégica isla se exportaban alimentos para las colonias que se estaban estableciendo en LA ESPAÑOLA, CIUDAD DE PUERTO RICO, SAN GERMÁN, CUBA, y la región caribeña de CENTRO y SUR AMÉRICA. Existen registros antiguos de los numerosos barcos que transportaban continuamente productos a SAN GERMÁN y a la CIUDAD DE PUERTO RICO, directos desde MONA.
___ Décadas después, la isla de MONA, (al igual que toda la región de las Antillas) fue abandona por las autoridades de España cuando el epicentro de la conquista y colonización se mudó de SANTO DOMINGO ......... a MÉXICO y el PERÚ.
___ se le considera a los TAÍNOS DE MONA el único grupo indígena registrado en las Antillas que los españoles NO desintegraron, logrando así sobrevivir UNIDO como grupo tribal. Toda una excepción a la regla de la época.
La Isla puertorriqueña de MONA, es mucho más que una tierra hermosa, (tal y como en agosto del 2013 reconfirmaba la revista de turismo internacional “LONELY PLANET” cuando la catalogó como “LA ISLA MÁS PRECIOSA DEL MUNDO POR SUS RIQUEZAS NATURALES”) ... es una tierra hermosa ... REPLETA DE HISTORIA.

I like your videos but it is ILLEGAL to fish or do any pearfishing One Mile radius out of Isla Mona or Desecheo Island so, what you did fishing there broke the Conservation Laws here since it is a Protected Natural Area!
edale65 The park rangers on the island told us where the lobsters were and watched us get them, so I am not sure where you received your information.
edale65, we were there when they open the island up for hunting season. Maybe that had something to do with it??? I don't know, but we didn't do anything illegal.
Yes they have hunting seasons there. There some times during the year that hunting its prohibited, but if it was, the hunters would had say so. So you were good. ;)
No you're not good! First alcohol isn't allowed on Mona, second there is a ban on fishing around Mona Island out to 1 mile because it is a protected area. If the rangers sae you, they didn't inform you properly a let you fish illegally. Nothing you can do about it now other than recognize your mistake, move on and let other know that they shouldn't do what you did.
@@brotherharamahdawan1468 we have one, it rocks and have a nicer hoopty too jajajajaja. Suc haram!
Is there any way to get to the island without paying for those super expensive tours some companies offer? Like is there someone who offers transportation for a reasonable price?
Jorge A. Good Question? I don’t know. We stopped by on the sailboat we were living on.
Music is not nearly loud enough
Dude ... The only type of fishing allowed in Mona is handline in a few coastline sections of Mona. Any other type of extraction such as lobster fishing is Illegal in Mona. Even de driking alcohol and taking the cocconuts is not allowed. These hunters know and dont follow the rules. Enforcement officials (rangers) in Mona should have talk to you on this. You also need a permit to stay in Mona. The island is a Marine Protected Area and land natural reserve, you can look it up. Now you know... Some people fish lobsters even when they know is illegal... They truly deserve never coming back .
Waw y Puerto Rico no ha hecho nada alli
Born and raised and never have been there. I thought there were nothing to do in the island.
Jjj 61KM RD 66MK PR. (Isla de mona de puerto rico)
Reserved property I don't think know so...pls..respect environmental places
We need to protect our habitat.
La Mona Island is part of Puerto Rico therefore it is US territory.
Did you need a fishing lic for the lobster ?
sweetbrandigirl , if you are not catching fish to sell you usually don't need a license.
Hi is it that way everywhere ? I'd like to know so that when I start cruising I stay within the law ? I've eard other cruisers talk about needed to get fishing lic when they check in to a country.
sweetbrandigirl Every country is different and you have to ask when you check in.

Beber bebidas alcohólicas y pescar langostas en isla de Mona es ilegal😤
Ernesto Lozada Era temporada de pesca.
@@luiyo2155 no importa, yo fui empleado ahy y bajo ninguna circunstancia ni pesca ni caza es una reserva y en ninguna reserva se permite mala tulla👍
Ernesto Lozada Bien por ti. Al parece no entiendes inglés , porque en el video dice que los que están ahí estaban por la temporada de caza.
@@luiyo2155 si es verdad no hablo Inglés pero lo siento es que ni la BEBIDA NI LAS LANGOSTAS son permitidas en ninguna época del año solo puedes pescar en área limitada y de caña
how did u get permission to visit?
Jose Guzman , You don't need permission to visit Mona Island if you are sailing East to West because we were already checked into the US. If you are sailing West to East, you can not stop because there is not a customs office on the island.
But i heard you need permission to camp out though. If you go to Mona island from any place in Puerto Rico or U.S virgin islands its okay, you can sail to any off shore island since they all are part of U.S, but If a person comes from Dominican Republic or any island or country that its not part of U.S or your boat its not registered in the U.S/Puerto Rico/U.S.V.I you will get stop by the U.S customs and border patrol. They usually patrolling the area.
Music way too loud I couldn't watch. Cut music lev by 60% and you have another subscriber.
Thank you for the feedback. We are new to video editing and will reduce the volume of the music on our future videos. Until then, please just use the volume control on your devise to adjust to your preferred level and we look forward to you following along.
We're is the Federal guard that is supposed to keep an eye in this place,if natives come to Mona they would come up with all this rules about all this permits,I bet that the alcalde from mayagues know about this,funny! even home made rum call pitorro!!Home made alcohol,,that's the reason we have a big problem with borders in PR,cause the border patrol might be in pitorro lol😤the American federal government have all this rules but they are made for native Puertoriqueños🤔Only friends of the alcalde just to look the other way $ this should be investigated at once!
Once I was in a aguada Beach under small palm tree,and this person said he was from the park service,and told me I can't be there! One year after the hurricane went in vacation with mom and sis, at Isla Verde around ocean park,this guy came and just sits next to us and the place was empty,I mean next to my sis steering and made us uncomfortable so we left,days later on the same beach we met this couple and in conversation the experience the same,so this man that sale's beers,told us that the men gets pay to make sure no one gets close to the fences at the houses at the beach,so we were way he didn't explain himself we felt scare and we were under palm trees not the fence, Puerto Rico tourism should be aware about all this with there native Islanders!!!!!
It must have been hard to communicate with the Puerto Ricans because they can't speak English
Puerto Ricans can speak English and we can speak a little Spanish, but not much. We actually wish we could speak Spanish a lot better, so we could get to know the people and culture of this wonderful island even more.
A big number of Puerto Ricans speak English so you can't generalize haha I'm Puerto Rican and I speak fluent English
Alex James I blame congress for not making us a state. We would’ve been speaking English by now.
And I'm half rican myself Alex james
Next time do not put your dirty finger on the Stew, and is illegal to fish one mile radius Gringos
