Thanks guys for the info.
So Rick, your saying that renting a car is a bad thing? Iv been to one of the worst roads in my life, in Bolivia(very undeveloped country). |

No, I've been in worse settings for renting a car, like Grenada recently. If you are going to stay in Cabartete you really don't need one. If you want to drive along the north coast you might consider it but I would not leave it on the street over night. Some juiced up moped yahoo hit a side view mirror to the tune of $200. USD. Add to that unreliable gas, at least then, we almost ran out. It turned out to be more trouble for us that trip than it was worth.

I was just there in february '07. We rented a car from a reputable dealer at the airport in santo domingo, then drove the car across the country to the north and as far west as samana as well. We had no trouble with fuel or break-ins. The roads are bad but nothing a vehicle can't handle. We spent a couple days in Cabarete staying at Ali's Surf Camp. Badass little place that's super-cheap and has AWESOME food!!

Got back from the trip to Cabarete ... I ended up staying at Extreme Hotel in kitebeach which was excellent ... the wind was very similar to Miami in the winter blowing 15-20 so I was on my 12 most of the days ... there were only three days that I got to use my 10 .... I wish it would have been stronger but at least it was constant so it was good
If anyone has any questions on cabarete reply to this thread and I will respond since I am subscribed ...

We are going there in Jully/August this year :-) I'm already been to Cabarete but never to the Peninsula de Samana... So I'm looking to get some infos. Where did you ride in Samana ? Did you go to Las Terrenas, Cascadas del Limon, etc ? Last edited by Gui; 02-14-2008 at 10:49 AM. |
