I was too harsh on the Dominican Rep

In a previous post, I was less than complimentary about the Dominican Republic. That was based solely on our experiences in Punta Cana, where we stayed for a week.

We then moved to Cabarete, which is 250km North West as the crow flies, and I have to say this place is totally different and much better. This is not package tour heaven, instead its a major spot for wind and kite surfing, and as you would expect, it has a different look, feel and vibe. The coastline is largely free of large hotels, and there are lots of small bars, cafes, hotels, and hostels.

Our rythm here is that the kids do home school up till lunchtime, then we all at varying times head to the beach and stay there till sunset. As you can see in the photos, we have a huge area all to ourselves.Læs mere
