Cabarete

A small, laid-back Caribbean seaside town, the popular holiday destination of Cabarete is considered by many to be the windsurfing and kitesurfing capital of the Caribbean, and the town has hosted international competitions since the 1980s. It is the perfect tropical destination, particularly for younger travellers seeking sun and adventure sports, and has a buzzing beachside bar and restaurant scene. Tour operators also offer plenty of other activities including hiking, horseriding, canyoning, mountain biking and surfing.

Information & Facts

Language

Spanish is the official language, but English is spoken in the main tourist centres.

Money

The currency is the Dominican Republic Peso (DOP), divided into 100 centavos. Many of the hotels and restaurants in the main tourist destinations display their prices in US dollars as well as in Dominican Pesos, as US dollars are widely accepted and some places will also accept Euros. The peso cannot be exchanged outside of the Dominican Republic. Major currencies can be converted into pesos at Central Bank approved bureaux; only 30% of the pesos bought can be re-converted and this only if the original receipts are produced, so it is best not to buy more pesos than you are likely to need. Major credit cards are accepted everywhere, but a commission is usually charged and it is recommended that you only use your credit card at your hotel as fraud incidents have been reported. The best exchange rates are paid on US travellers cheques and secondly on US dollars cash and are best exchanged at exchange bureaux ( casas de cambio). Banking hours are Monday to Friday from 8.30am to 4.30pm; some banks also open on Saturday. ATMs are widespread.
