About Cabarete

Cabarete is an established intermediate to advanced destination featuring a reef break with variable conditions. The flat to choppy water offers enough texture for more developed riders, with reef protection moderating the raw ocean swell. The beach launch provides straightforward access to the break. While not a pure beginner spot, intermediate riders seeking to develop on reef will find manageable progression opportunities here.
