Safety in Caberete
Commonly Asked Questions
How safe is Cabarete
The North Coast of the Dominican Republic is known as one of the safest tourist spots in the Caribbean, with an exceptionally low crime rate and virtually no violent crime. Online information, including travel warnings from the U.S. State Department, can be confusing, as these advisories often cover the entire island and don’t differentiate between regions. In reality, around 90 percent of all crime in the Dominican Republic happens in the capital, Santo Domingo, which is home to over 80 percent of the country's population
Is the water safe?
Yes, but better safe than sorry. We offer complimentary bottled water at all our properties. The island's tap water is safe for showering and brushing your teeth
Is it safe to walk around town?
Absolutely! As with anywhere it’s smart to stay vigilant, especially after a couple of beers.
What are the biggest dangers during our stay?
Without a doubt, the greatest risk is driving at night due to poorly lit areas and there is an abundance of motorcycles on the road. We strongly advise our clients to use taxis after dark. Additionally, rip tides on the beach are often underestimated. It’s important to assess ocean conditions before swimming, a precaution that applies to any beach destination.
Is the food and alcohol safe?
The Barefoot Group has welcomed thousands of guests to its properties, and we take pride in the fact that we have never encountered a case of food or alcohol poisoning. This is because we source all our supplies from trusted vendors.
Is Haiti a safety issue?
Not at all! Our properties are located eight and a half hours away from the Haiti border. To put it in perspective, asking if issues in Haiti might impact your stay in Cabarete is like asking if violent crime in New York City could affect your visit to Montreal, Canada.
