Itinerary

Travel Map
Depending on the swell and wind conditions, there are different types of waves on the north coast for different types of surfers.  Outer reefs, peaky sandbar perfection, powerful walls.  The locals say the area “has it all” or “lo tiene todo.”

Tides

The shift between high and low tides is only 2-4 feet on any given day in the lunar cycle.  For this reason, most spots are generally surfable throughout the day.  Usually being a little softer on the high tide and heavier on the low.

Surf Spots:

Encuentro:
3 reef breaks.  The right is a peak takeoff, with a long peeling wall, into a deep water channel, up to 200 meters.  The left is a shallow reef point that features 3 different takeoff spots that can be linked together with fast hollow sections.  The third is Coco-Pipe, a...
Destroyer:
This left breaks in super shallow water on a coral reef that has fingers sticking up.  Hollow takeoffs give way to fast “must make” sections that really get the adrenaline pumping.  Similar to many reef pass waves in the South Pacific, this spot is for advanced surfers only.

Mananero
: Empty beachbreak that has some good power.  There are miles of peaks and plenty of waves for all.  Usually offshore in the morning, there are lefts and rights with good hollow sections.

La Pasa:
This hidden right hander breaks on a shallow coral reef and comes out of deep water.  These are fast steep takeoffs with draining sections to drive through.  When the conditions are right, it really is a perfect wave.

La Preciosa
: A shoulder type left that breaks a little farther out, in the middle of a small bay.  This wave is a powerful peak and fast takeoff that slides it’s way around the reef.  There is more water moving on this wave than most, and it is always bigger than it looks from the cliff.  This wave is somewhat wind protected and usually surfable throughout the day.

El Barco
: This is an A-frame reef setup and there is a wrecked ship that sits just outside the normal lineup and helps the wave stand up.  This wave peels left and right equally well and is known as a performance wave.  Protected from the wind, this wave stays glassy long after the others have blown out.

El Burro
: A right hand reef that is wind protected.  A heavy takeoff gives way to long walls and very carve-able sections.  One of the longer waves in the region, offering multiple turns on every wave.

La Bahia:
  An A-frame peak that breaks out in the middle of a very deep bay.  Needs a big swell, but the wind is always offshore here.  On some swells the left is better, on most swells the right is better, but both offer steep takeoffs and short intense rides.  Breaking over a s...
La Boca
: This is a rivermouth located in the back of La Bahia.  The river has formed a right hand sand point that breaks just in front of the cliff.  Offering long and sometimes fast sand bottom spinners, this wave is also wind protected and surfable all day.

Kite Beach
: This outer reef setup has lefts and rights.  It can be long and even hollow.  This wave picks up swell when other waves don’t.  Popular for kite boarding because of the wind.  This wave needs super glassy conditions.

Because of the Easterly trade winds, the Amber co...

Accommodation

Cabana s

Located on the beach in the gated community of Perla Marina, our unique DR Cabanas offer oceanfront dining, yoga classes, pool, spa facilities and boutique rooms with plenty of privacy for couples and families.

The vibe is tropical, whimsical and laid back. Tucked under the almond trees and just steps to the ocean guests can take advantage of our half and full day surf guide service while enjoying a boutique Caribbean eco-lodge experience.

Every cabana is thoughtfully decorated with each room having a unique style and feel. The large trees on the property create plenty of shade and the stone paths meander the grounds leading to a yoga temple, a secret vegetable garden and of course the waves.

The large covered dining area is kept cool by the natural thatched roof and evening ocean breezes. Meals are prepared by an international chef and served outside to make the most of the perfect climate and natural beauty.
