Things to do in Sosua, Puerto Plata Province: The Best Outdoor Activities

July 28, 2021 Leonardo Torrence

Sosua is everything you want a beach town to be. Clear waters teem with coral, perfect for snorkeling and diving. Above sea level you’ll find multicolored sands lined with beach shacks. This small enclave of the Dominican Republic was once a haven for Jewish refugees. Historic sites and synagogues offer great perspective on Sosua’s postwar identity. On a lighter note, a community of ex-pats helps fuel a boisterous, international nightlife scene.

This is a great place if you need a little tennis while on vacation in the Dominican. Newly established center with 4 well groomed courts and welcoming people. The canopy court is perfect for protection from sun and wind. Traveling alone? There are very competent pros to sign up with for lessons or a casual hit. Highly recommend.
