NORTH COAST discussion and questions... by planner
Here is a good place for all our North Coast questions and discussions......several of us have lived or do live on the North Coast...............
I am also sorry to hear about the opening of Pedro Calisante to traffic. It doesn't make sense at all! When were there the whole street was packed with people eating and listening to music. Also doesn't make sense that any restaurant would ... Read More

Hey All, Bob - we were near the Angelica, it was funny because we ran into a couple of guys from our jeep tour from the day before. Spent the day around the condo today due to the rain, got in some pool time though. As for the cuckarachas, I do ... Read More

Ha ha ha ha...nice. Well I do feel a little better about the bug situation. The beauty here is worth the small (or SUV size) issue. Also it turns out I was not paying close enough attention to the dates ( a hazard here I suspect) and we aren't ... Read More

Thanks all for you answers, I do understand that they are a part of the tropics but I thought it was like Bob said and that you only saw them occasionally if due diligence is done. We killed two in our kitchen tonight, they may or may not be the ... Read More

Went on a Jeep Safari which included, some touristy stuff like Dominican coffee, 7 of the 27 waterfalls and cigar making. It was quite fun but I think the most interesting (besides the mamajuana) was seeing the country side and how many people live. ... Read More

Merry Christmas everyone! A quick update, we noticed quite a few locals out on the streets having drinks on our way to dinner last night. It looked very merry as they were all sitting and chatting on the corners. That being said, we had a feeling ... Read More

All I can say about Monkey Jungle is WOW. It was a riot. Toby and I had never been zip lining before and they have 7 ranging from slow and easy to fairly fast plus a 60 foot drop at the end into a cave, which sounds way scarier than it was. The ... Read More

Cabarate - beautiful but a little on the boring side I would say. We checked out the shops, overpaid for some jewelry on the beach, walked the beautiful beach, had a beer at the Lazy Dog and then we were pretty much done. I think if we were there ... Read More

Hmmm..thanks for all the info. I'm wondering if it would be better to just rent a car for day or two. Makes sense that everything goes up a bit, people need to make a living. As for the perculator..lol. We are absolutely French press ... Read More

Ok North Coastians and those in the know, I need a little guidance. 1. What should I pay for a hammock from a beach vendor? 2. What should I pay for a taxi to the monkey house? 3. I paid 300 pesos for 2 chairs and an umbrella yesterday..was it too ... Read More
