Boca Chica - Dominican Republic
Boca Chica is Santo Domingos traditional beach, since it is less than 20 minutes from the capital city.
It is also a main choice for sports tourists that stay at its hotels due to their proximity to the Las Americas International Airport (5 mins away) and the Park of the East sports venues, where the Pan Am Games took place in 2003 or the Las Americas Speed Race Track for go kart and speed racing events.
On the same side of the Ozama River is the Santo Domingo Aquarium, the Three Eyes Caves, and the Columbus Lighthouse.
Boca Chica is around the corner from the countrys leading port, the Caucedo Multimodal Port and from the Las Americas Institute of Technology (ITLA) where they prepare students for high tech careers in partnership with Stevens Institute of Technology (New Jersey).
Boca Chica has a well known collection of some of the countrys best seafood restaurants onlooking to the beach for picture perfect moments.
The Santo Domingo Yacht Club, site of many yachting and sailing events, is right in Boca Chica.
Tourists staying in Boca Chica thus are right on the beach, and only a short drive from the historical marvels of the Colonial City of Santo Domingo to the West.
While Boca Chica is a lagoon of very placid waters, 10 minutes away is Playa Caribe (Embassy Beach), for great boogie boarding (early mornings are quiet) and wave surfing later in the day.
