Sosua

Sosua is a quaint cosmopolitan village in the Dominican Republic, known for its uninhabited beaches, cozy guest houses, and quaint cafés. Probably one of the greatest attractions in the area is its world-class water sports, and laid back atmosphere. Sosua offers an underwater wonderland for those who enjoy snorkeling and diving. Its calm, sheltered reef structures provide the perfect opportunity to view its diverse aquatic life in a relatively untouched habitat. During the winter, vacationers can travel a bit further from the reefs via boat to watch the whales. Unlike other tropical destinations, local vendors provide a pleasant addition to your stay, rather than an annoyance. Merchants walk the beach daily, offering fresh fruit, drinks, and shrimp, and are rarely pushy, always friendly, and take “no” for an answer. For one dollar, you can rent a chair on Sosua beach, spending the entire day allowing all troubles to melt away.
