If you are considering a trip to the Dominican Republic but are unsure of where to stay, one of the hottest spots to consider is Rosarito Beach. It is located on the Pacific Coast of the Dominican Republic, in Punta Cana. The beach is very busy at this time of year because it is the most popular time for tourists to visit. It has clean white sand and there is a white sand beach with turquoise blue waters. There are all kinds of water activities for all ages.
If you are looking for a place to swim and would like to spend your days sunning and snorkeling, Rosarito beach has an abundance of beautiful tropical fish. If you prefer to play with the surf and come up for air, you can rent a kayak or rent a board. Other boaters are more than willing to help you get in and out of the water as well. You can even go deep sea fishing.
Rosarito is not only an ideal vacation spot; it is also a great place to work. Many expats and tourists come to work in the large shipping companies that anchor just off the coast. The majority of these companies are from the United States, Canada and Europe. They have day camps, which are actually houses or apartments where workers live for the week and go home every night.
As a matter of fact, the town of Rosarito is becoming famous for its salsa festival, the World Fashion Week and the Electric Fiesta. All three of these events happen every year in March. Throughout the summer, you will find a lot of festivals and carnivals going on. There is even an annual music festival. Most of the beaches nearby are considered to be safe and touristy, although there is always the risk of robbery.
For those that want to go exploring, there is always the ocean. However, it can be quite dangerous to go swimming in the ocean during the high season. The waters are filled with sharks, marauding macaws, turtles, giant sea snakes and huge starfish. Therefore, swimming in these waters during this time is very dangerous.
You will find two hotels in Rosarito Beach, which is a couple of minutes walk from the sandy beaches. These two hotels are quite cheap and clean. The restaurants in the area serve delicious Mediterranean and continental meals. The weather in Rosarito is mostly warm all year round and the beaches remain beautifully white and clean.
