Introducing Cabarete

Cities gentrify; surf towns grow up. So it has been in Cabarete. This one-time farming hamlet is now the adventure-sports capital of the country, booming with condos and new development. You’ll find a sophisticated, grown-up beach town, with top-notch hotels, and a beach dining experience second to none (not to mention the best winds and waves on the island).

Cabarete is an ideal spot to base yourself for exploring the north coast – you’re within two hours’ drive of the best that the coast has to offer, and if you want to go surfing, or windsurfing, or kitesurfing, heck, you don’t even need to leave town.

You’ll hear a babble of five or six languages as you walk Cabarete’s single street. So strong is the foreign flavor that Dominicans from the capital come here on weekends just to tourist-watch – tourists themselves become a tourist attraction.
