You could win a week’s stay on the beach in Cabarete!
That’s right, we’re giving away a week at picturesque Casa Velada located right on the sands of the “action sports capital of the Caribbean,” Caberete. With two large bedrooms plus a master bedroom suite, you can even bring your friends. Amenities also include a private pool, palapa for sundowners, air conditioning and wifi. (You wouldn’t want to miss any Uncommon Caribbean posts, right?)
But wait, there’s more:
Kiteboarding lessons at Laurel Eastman Kiteboarding!
Laurel (a world champion kiteboarder and probably the nicest person I’ve ever met) runs the premier kiteboarding school in Cabarete. Aspiring athletes flock to LEK from around the world to up their kiteboarding skills. If any school can turn you into a kiteboarding convert, it’s Laurel’s.
But wait, there’s more:
An excursion to Ciguapa Falls with Iguana Mama Adventure Tours!
Now you can finally answer the age old question: If all your friends jumped off a cliff, would you do it too? This excursion takes lucky travelers way off the beaten path to a picturesque river winding its way through the Septentrional Mountain Range. Then the fun begins: leaping off a series of increasingly higher waterfalls while making your way downriver surrounded by Dominican wilderness.
But wait, there’s even more:
