Guys you really have to visit bahia de las aguilas in the south

[@FelipeFermin]

Apart from Bahia de las Aguilas, which you should definitely mark as one of your next destinations, there’s also a few others spots that might actually top Las Terrenas (which is pretty hard, IMO): 1) Miches (which is poised to explode as the new main tourism destination, considering the investments that are being made from mega corporations). Over there, look for playa Esmeralda, playa Costa Esmeralda, and playa El Limón. 2) Playa La Ensenada and Punta Rucia which are located west from Cabarete / Puerto Plata. From Punta Rucia you can take a quick boat to Cayo Arena, which is a sand bank that makes you wish you didn’t forget your snorkeling gear. 3) And going far more northwest, you can find Playa Buen Hombre (best kept secret of kitesurfers) and even farther you’ll find Montecristi, specifically Playa Juan de Bolaños. You should make those 4 your next destinations. Also, while in Las Terrenas, check for the hidden gems that you can find in Las Galeras, such as Playa Madama.

[@DelightfulTravellers]

@@FelipeFermin We've been to a couple of those locations already and have a full video on Punta Rucia / Cayo Arena. Check the channel! :)

I am a Dominican watching and loving your videos from the USA. What I love the most is how you present our greatness and shortcomings with a lot of respect. Stay safe and keep up the good work.

[@DelightfulTravellers]

Wow, thank you!

[@waschell1]

This was exactly the video I was looking for because I was trying to decide between the two locales for possible property myself and you addressed pretty much everything down to even the size of the waves which is a consideration for me. I love big waves and wind so it's Cabarete for me! Thanks so much for your continued upbeat and informative content❤️😊 congrats on 100k!

[@FelipeFermin]

Las Terrenas becomes extremely crowded starting “Holy Wednesday” (starting April 13th this year). Usually lots and lots of people from Santo Domingo prefer spending the Easter Vacation over there. Just letting you guys know, so you don’t get scared seeing so much people when it is usually not crowded at all in Las Terrenas. That is why when I go over with my family, We try to avoid those days and just spend a few days BEFORE Wednesday / Thursday. If I see you next week, I’ll definitely say hello. Love your content, by the way.

Thank you for such a great honest reflection on Cabarete , the north shore and the magic island and its people. Living here greatfull since 32 years doing watersports, i can only confirm your passion and love ❤ for Dominican Republic and its people.

[@DelightfulTravellers]

This place has completely swept us off our feet Marcus. The north coast is one of our favourite places on the planet 😀 Thanks for watching - Trevor

[@kenandcoreen7179]

This video was so well done, and very informative. I can see that choosing where to stay would not be an easy one for us. The beaches in Las Terrenas really are gorgeous. I love being able to swim in the ocean, and would be out there forever. Also love the European vibe. BUT, I also love how Cabarete is so walkable. We also enjoy getting to know locals, and seems like that would be more likely in Cabarete. Dining with our feet in the sand - BONUS! You've given us a lot to think about should we ever make it to the DR. I'm thinking a couple weeks in each would be the best way to go! Thanks for a great watch! - Coreen

[@DelightfulTravellers]

Pros and Cons to each right? 🤗 The good news is they are both just 3 hours from each other - Anna

[@worldnomaderic]

Great video. My wife and I spent last Spring/Summer in Cabarete and visited Las Terrenas for 2 weeks. We are in Cab. again for this Spring/Summer. I can say this video is very accurate. If we were not big kiters, I'd give the edge to Las Terrenas. Much prettier beaches and great vibe, but you can't beat the wind in Cabarete! It truly is a great country. If you go, don't be afraid to get out of town and see the mountains, get to know the people and help keep the beaches clean by picking up trash when you can, especially your own :)

[@pilsatortube]

Congratz on the 100K :) well deserved! For me its a 10:0 win for Las Terrenas ;) nothing beats the beaches and lush tropical nature and natural Palm Trees everywhere! Plus the Quad lifestyle is a dream to be experienced... on an work related note: Las Terrenas will get Star Link by next year latest. Which will give it great internet.

Thanks for answering my question a month ago about the best spot for Kite Surfing. I did go to Kite Beach for Kite surfing lessons and partied in Cabarete for 2 weeks. Ate local and treated my Kite instructor and staffs with bottle service at Ojo nightclub on weekends. I had a great time and I’m looking forward to returning for 3 weeks in December. Thanks again.

First of all, love the videos and it was a amazing to see you walk into the restaurant that my girlfriend and I were eating at in Las Terrenas. My only quibble about your location rating between Las Terrenas VS Cabarete is that location maybe should be called ease to get to or accessibility

Cabarete wins for me. My 3 "W"s are: Warm, Walkable, and Water. I stayed in Sosúa for a month and a half a few years back and it was a great experience. I stayed in Casa Linda. My only issue was that right outside of Casa Linda, it wasn't very walkable. It would've been nice to have some sidewalks in the community and on the outside that connects to the beach. This may be in the works, but right now it appears that Cabarete is more developed in this area. Great overview! Thank you.

In terms of the water, I suggest getting a water filter. The type used in camping that filter out any type of water that can make water drinkable for emergency use, for instance. Do your own due diligence for that. Amazon has a ton of filters.

We were super careful about what we ate… we never drank or brushed with tap water, and we stayed away from uncooked veg at restaurants.
