Living in a coastal state or province offers many advantages, allowing locals to enjoy sandy beaches, sunny skies, and year-round outdoor activities. However, many coastal communities also have to contend with a very real danger- hurricanes. 

If the reality of hurricane devastation has prevented you from moving oceanside in your own country, don’t set aside your dream just yet- become an expat and move to the hurricane-free Cabarete, Dominican Republic! Keep reading to learn why Cabarete is the ideal coastal retreat and how to make the move with Casa Linda. 

How Cabarete is Protected from Hurricanes

You’re likely thinking: “Doesn’t the Caribbean get hurricanes all the time?” Yes, many Caribbean nations have suffered the effects of hurricanes, but you don’t need to worry about Cabarete’s side of the Dominican North Coast. Due to our geographic surroundings, this area is well sheltered from these devastating storms.  

Thanks to the currents of the Mona Passage (or Canal de la Mona), incoming storms are forced to the northernmost or south part of the island. Our vast mountain ranges also provide a large landmass that deter hurricanes from landing in our general area. Further, the shallow reef on our coastline prevents big surges of water from overcoming our land. When hurricane season hits while living in Cabarete, you can enjoy your time on the sand and surf worry-free!

Goodbye, Flordia- Hello, DR North Coast!

North American citizens who love coastal living can enjoy the sun and surf without the risk of losing their homes to a hurricane. If you’ve experienced the aftereffects of the Florida hurricanes and are looking for a new place to call home, embrace the ex-pat life in the Dominican Republic! You can get all the benefits of the Florida coast without needing to stay on storm watch during hurricane season.

Not only is Cabarete’s coast safe from hurricanes, but it’s also a much more affordable place to live than the American West Coast. You can enjoy fresh produce and good-quality food at over half the cost in the US while saving money on other essentials like utilities, transportation, and general household groceries. Recreation and entertainment can also be enjoyed at a low price, allowing you to get the most out of Cabarete’s vibrant cultural events and nightlife.    

Cabarete also boasts a welcoming environment for ex-pats with plenty of opportunities to integrate into the local culture and community. You also won’t be too far away from fellow North Americans- our closed community at Casa Linda mostly consists of other ex-pats from the United States and Canada. You can ease the transition into Caribbean island living by getting to know your neighbours and learning how they’ve successfully adapted to ex-pat life in the Dominican Republic.
