Hello there,
I am traveling to Puerto Rico on holiday the weekend of March 6-9 and would love to get a bit of climbing in...I'm a safe, experienced climber and have climbed all over the world, primarily in South Africa and the US.
If anyone is available to belay or just has some advice on where to climb, I'd be quite grateful.
Thanks,
Lauren

Saludos(greetings) Lauren ,
My name is Eduardo and I'm a local climber from Puerto Rico. My advice is to get in contact with the local climbing community, so you may know ahead where to go, places to visit, belay partners, ect.
Here are some helpful links:
Facebook group of Climbing PR (local climbing group currently managing the Local Climbers Association)
http://www.facebook.com/climbingpr
Facebook group of the Local Climbers Association(Asociacion de Escaladores de Puerto Rico-A.E.P.R.I.). On the file section of their page you can find simple climbing topos of the different climbing areas of the Island.

videos of several climbing/bouldering/psicobloc areas around the island:
