BEST OF CABARETE
Best tour operator: iguana mama! the oldest in cabarete. you'll pay a bit more to go with them, but the service is better. less people per tour, so you don't feel so much like cattle. this business recently changed hands, so hopefully it will remain the same. go on the damajagua cascading trip! exhilarating and strenuous! hope that junior is your tour guide. iguana mama is right on the main road in cabarete across from the scotia bank.
Best beach (within a short drive): playa grande! located in rio san juan, about 45 minutes from cabarete, this is a white sand beach with turquoise blue waters. sometimes waves, and big ones at that. we've discovered that when it is not windy, it is best to sit on the western end of the beach, reachable via a dirt road. (playa caleton is a gem of a beach out there too.)

Best beach (island-wide): playa bonita, las terrenas! this might win not only because of the gorgeous turquoise blue waters and white sand, but also because of the quaint hotels and restaurants along the sandy road here. be sure to have lunch at casa grande there.
