Cabarete Dominican Republic photo gallery

Cabarete is located on the Dominican Republic's northern coast, this former fishing village has evolved into a hot destination for watersports enthusiasts. Protected from the high seas by breakwater reefs and bathed year-round by easterly breezes, the magnificent Cabarete Bay is an ideal place for top-flight windsurfing competitions, like the World Cup and Race Week, snorkeling or simply lolling on the beach. The surrounding area lends itself to other activities such as mountain biking, hiking and cave-exploring, and there are several local tour operators that cater to adventure travelers. June-October is the optimum windsurfing and kitesurfing season, although fierce Caribbean hurricanes tend to sweep over the Dominican Republic between August and October. Cabarete is about 15 minutes from Puerto Plata International Airport and 15 miles (24 kilometers) east of Sosua.
