What to do and see in Sosua, Puerto Plata Province: The Best Things to do Good for Big Groups
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.

We wish we hadn't left this for the last day of our trip or we probably would have gone back. This park had so many things to do, was well supervised, and clean. We went on a Monday afternoon and practically had the park to ourselves. Our elementary school boys loved it-inflatables, pool, water park, obstacle course, and ball pit. There were so many things they didn't even have time to do it all. You also can apply your cost of admission towards food (which was delicious), so we essentially had dinner and 6 hours entertainment for our family for 4 for less than $25 US. I would highly recommend it for families visiting the area.
9. Sosua Beach

This often crowded beach features white sand and turquoise waters.
Reviewed By PKSGIRL2011 - Southington, United States
Sosua is a wonder beach with warm clear water, awesome snorkeling, and plenty of delicious restaurants. I am writing this more of an encouragement for those traveling to this destination or staying at a resort in Sosua to consider bringing items to donate. Although this country is beautiful there are many living below poverty level. We were made aware of a school for displaced children. An orphanage that houses about 30 children. They survive through donations only. There are times during the year when the kids don’t have enough to each. Jolly Rogers restaurant hosts a Christmas party and provides some support through the year. I would encourage those traveling to the area to bring extra clothing, toiletries (toothbrush toothpaste soaps), shoes and expecially nonperishable food items. I’m sure that Jolly Rogers could get these items to the school. If you have any questions or would like more information feel free to message me.
