Never boring!

Searching for the sea route to India, Christopher Columbus discovered the island of Hispaniola in 1492. Today, the island is subdivided into the Dominican Republic and Haiti.

The town, which is located on a 4-km-long sandy beach, is just the right location for those who crave sun and wind.

Cabarete is known as "the windsurfers' Caribbean Eldorado" because it offers countless water sports options, as well as romantic horseback rides on mile-long beaches, surfboard riding, mountain biking – to mention only some of the attractions. It has a special atmosphere that will make your windsurfing or kitesurfing vacation unforgettable. Enjoy your fruity cocktail at happy hour and allow yourself to be carried away by the rhythms of the Merengue and the Salsa.

Our insider tips:
