About Cabarete

The small quaint French seaside town of Cabarete is a mere 8 minutes drive from your luxury rental villa. The long extensive main beach of Cabarete is here. The beach is lined with many restaurants and bars serving lunch and dinner with views of the sea and beach. It is quite a lively spot at night with many bustling restaurants and many of the bars turning into discos.

Life here centers on the beach. During the day it is filled with adventure-seeking surfers and sunbathers who convert to casual diners by night dining on steaks, pasta, pizza, and fresh seafood caught directly out of the sea. Dining for dinner is casual.
Though Cabarete is famous for windsurfing, kite boarding and traditional surfing, it offers far more than that. The advantage Cabarete has over other destinations is its abundance of nearby sports and activities including tennis, white-water rafting, caving, canoing, kayaking, cascading, dirt biking, rappelling, hiking, trekking and more. Many of these are offered through Iguana Mama, the Dominican Republic’s first licensed eco/active tourism business.
