There is no camping at the dz. There is a camp ground about 10 minutes north of the dz and it is right on the beach. Limited slots available. Contact Jason (dzo) at jason@xtremedivers.com for reservations.

This is a very amazing trip.
There isn't alot of dz.com activity or a countdown thread for this boogie - but at the risk of revealing one of the best, local and most beautiful skydiving trips of the year, I'll be the first to say, Puerto Rico is truly amazing.
The people are GORGEOUS (MiroChristie and Julio, Skycutie (Jessica), Jason G., IvanRockOn, Hector, etc.!) and friendly, the land is spectacular - surfing at Rincon, el yunque (rainforest), the beaches, the caves, the phosphorescent bay......Do you know about 'coqui'?
And the enthusiasm is seriously unmatched.
Discover PR for yourself. There is a reason it's getting bigger and better every year.

Fly into San Juan and make sure to save a day there to visit El Morro and Old Town San Juan - incredible.
Also! For only $45 round-trip, you can charter a caravan to fly you 20 min. east to a small island (7x3 miles) called Culebra. It has gorgeous empty beaches and excellent snorkeling. We camped on the beach there for $10/night.
Then you'll drive to Humacao and the DZ. Car rental is really reasonable but Puerto Ricans are 'experienced' drivers, so brush up on your skills!
Jess, Heath and I - Adam and Stuey will be there for sure. We're planning to come down the weekend before the boogie for some off-DZ fun. Can't WAIT!
