Boca Chica tourist information
Because this resort town is conveniently-located close to the airport and the capital city of Santo Domingo. No other destination places you as close to all the attractions of the bustling 2.5-million people capital city.
Fly in to Las Americas airport and in 15 minutes you can go wading into a natural giant swimming pool. This makes it a good choice for families with small children. And Boca Chica is great for singles. It is a free-spirited tourist town where 80% of the people out partying on any given night will be single.
Boca Chica beach is a reef-protected lagoon of tranquil blue waters and powder-white sand. One can wade out 100 yards from shore into glassy waters and still be only waist deep with nothing but soft clean sand underfoot. It’s the perfect beach for small children because there are no waves and no deep waters. Boca Chica is crowded on Sundays when capital city dwellers make the half hour commute to the beach, returning home at dusk. The rest of the week, the sand and sun is for the tourists.
One can find just about everything in Boca Chica, making it one of the most complete of the ungated beach towns in the country. There are hotels and dining for every budget, great night life, proximity to the airport and capital, yet it’s still small enough to build relationships.
Boca Chica is a "shopping beach" because pleasant Dominican vendors wander the beach or sell from their shops on the main street that runs parallel to the beach. While tanning, you can haggle over silver jewelry and paintings, or get your hair braided in corn rows. No heavy pressure. Just people trying to get a few of your tourist dollars.
