Tourists beware! You will be charged double the price for being a foreigner. No apologies or differences in food quality. I found this out when the waitress refused to give me the menu from the table next to us, which is obviously different from mine. The next table were local folks. I have lived in DR for over 20 years and never been subjected to such obvious rip off scheme! Beware!

The beach is lovely, however, the wind was quite strong today and the waves were too rough for swimming. Additionally, the beach boasts golden sand.
