How do I get from San Juan to the Broneah Base Camp?
The taxi service from the San Juan airport to La Parguera can be upwards of $150.00, but are always there and ready to go. If you are flying into Mayaguez we can arrange a $40 cab to pick you up and bring you directly to the hotel in La Parguera.
Driving Directions From San Juan Airport to La Parguera: You leave the airport and take the Teodoro Moscoso toll bridge ($1.75), and once you cross the bridge you continue on Rd 17. Stay on Rd. 17 until you reach an intersection for Rd. 18, where you take the exit to Caguas (south). Stay on Rd. 18, and eventually it becomes the Las Americas Toll Expressway, or Highway 52.
Once you are on Highway 52, follow the signs towards Caguas and then towards Ponce, a city on the south coast of the island. You should arrive in Ponce about 1.5 hours after leaving the airport. Highway 52 circles Ponce to the South, and then ends as it connects with Road 2 towards Yauco and Mayagüez.
After leaving Ponce, heading west on Rd. 2, you will pass the towns of Guayanilla and Yauco. After passing the Yauco Plaza mall (K-mart, McDonald's, etc.) on the right side, you will drive under two overpass bridges - just after the second overpass, on the right side, there is an exit for Rd. 116 with signs for Guánica and La Parguera. Do not miss this exit, as you will have to drive about 15-20 minutes before you can double back!
Once you are on Rd. 116 you pass the towns of Guánica and Ensenada. About 20-30 minutes after turning on to Rd. 116 you will find an intermittent traffic light at the intersection for Rd. 304, where you will turn left and the road will take you straight into La Parguera.
When you enter town riding down 304, the road comes to a T-intersection, where you take a right turn and pass the Hotel Villa Parguera on your left - immediately after the hotels' parking lot is the Hotel Posada Porlamar on the left side, facing the sea. Enjoy your drive and the beautiful scenery!!

The Broneah Kite Camp is located in the small village of La Parguera. This is a super mellow fishing village, which brings in tourists from all over the world. The city is based next to the world famous Bioluminescent Lagoon which magically lights up at night. The town and area offers many activities including boat trips through the channels, fishing, kayaking, snorkeling, scuba diving, kiteboarding, windsurfing (whoa, did we say windsurfing) and just straight up chilling.
Prepare to meet other kiteboarders in your camp that could potentially become life-long friends. We have been organizing these kiteboarding camps for many years now, and in this time have met some incredible people. Expect to learn and to share priceless memories with students of all types.
The south side of the island has a dry, desert landscape that creates consistent and strong thermal winds nearly every day! Coming in the spring, you can expect to ride at least seven out of ten days! During our 2004 March camp, we scored 26 out of
