Was in Vieques recently, absolutely amazing! If possible, try to plan to go when it isn't a full moon, or the sky is cloudy. Harder to see the illumination when the moon is shining bright. And you're correct they don't allow you to swim in it any longer, but they say its because it's harmful to the microorganisms, didn't mention the shark nursery.

Having said that, I would swim again in that water without concern - thousands of tourists did it before and after me, what happened to that woman was just bad luck.
