Description

Shaded afternoon sport climbing on glue in bolts over the ocean. 

Getting There

A 15-20 min hike east on the trail from Surfers Beach heading to Survival Beach will bring you up to a ridge (18.507786, -67.136004 https://goo.gl/maps/orQ5V7iWwvP2pXD69) where the view suddenly opens up and you can see Survival Beach in front of you. Continue a few steps down and you reach a split where the main trail goes downhill through the bushes toward the beach but a flat open walkway leads to the left. If you follow it to the left, you'll be at the climbing area. The actual pit is at the far end across the rock scramble.
