Beachside Shack: Tourist Areas and Pre-Hurricane Numbers

beachside shack: Federal relief has mostly benefited tourist areas, and tourism has returned to pre-hurricane numbers, according to National Observer. To Latona, however, Vieques is meaningfully different. Business is booming at the bar and hostel Stephanie Latona manages, a colorful beachside shack popular among visitors. One of the most noticeable things that's changed since the hurricanes, Latona says, is that there are fewer familiar faces. People who left after Maria or even Irma stuck around until the next storm, but eventually gave up trying to rebuild and left. The community definitely feels like it's gotten smaller, she said.
