But will you still drive a mini-van and get us lost and angry? :D:)



Well, maybe this will help. I started to work on some directions on how to get from the San Juan airport to the DZ, DZ to the nearby hotels, and DZ to the beach and the welcome party.

You can download it from DZ directions.

If you are an old hand at traveling down to the Island, maybe you can suggest others spots that need to be marked on the maps. If you following this directions and still get lost, feel free to pull over and ask someone else :P.

I got 8 beach jumps last year!
the beauty of the island makes it worth the trip alone!

then there's the chicas.....B|



Ahh, beach jumps, we did some this weekend. Here is some Beach Jumps video from this weekend. On Saturday there was a wedding going on when we landed. If I had know I would had landed closer. You can see them in the background. ;)

For some reason, people started to run. Since they don't know me, there is now way they can know how bad my landings are. So I can't see a reason for them getting scared. :P

Where is the Condo Located? Is the location something that other skydivers could be interested?

I only ask because other large groups could be interested in getting apartments/Condos instead of a bunch of hotel rooms. Maybe something that can be leveraged.

By the way, when reserving at the hotels, make sure to inform them that you come for the Skydive Festival. There are rooms separated for the event and if they don't know is for skydivers, they could tell you that the facilities are full. Plus it gives them an idea of how much extra insurance they need. :P

Can we also get directions to a cockfighting arena nearby?



Ok, I little research located the local cockfight arena about 2 minutes away from the Rosa del Mar hotel. In the same town of Hatillo. Very close to road #2. Look for "El Club Gallistico de Hatillo".

See attached map. The direction are starting on the Rosa del mar hotel, so you will need the original directions document to find that reference.

PS: The usual map disclamer apply :P

JUST A NOTE--When calling or checking in at any hotel, identify yourself as a skydiver. You will then be offered the group rate. Punta Maracayo Resort is almost full, 787-544-2000.
