6 Health Benefits of Living in a Coastal Region

6 Health Benefits of Living in a Coastal Region

Are you tired of being landlocked? Have you always longed to own a home by the ocean? If you’d like to try living in a coastal environment, you can take a step further and move to the tropical coast of Cabarete, DR!

At Casa Linda, we offer luxury villas located just a few minutes outside of Cabarete, where the air is fresh, the skies are blue, and the ocean stretches out for miles. There are a lot of benefits of living by the sea, especially when it comes to your physical health. Keep reading to learn why living in a coastal region may be the change you need!

Cleaner Air

Ever wondered why you breathe so easily by the seaside? It’s because the air is cleaner! Our ocean has a high concentration of negative ions, which are responsible for enhanced energy, mood regulation, and serotonin. So not only do we breathe easier, but we feel much better. Just imagine how good you’ll feel living in the DR’s coastal air in one of our Cabarete villas!

Lots of Vitamin D

One of the cornerstones of good health is a consistent source of Vitamin D, which we get from the sun. A regular source of Vitamin D can help regulate your mood, reduce symptoms of depression and improve your calcium and bone strength.

Consistent sun isn’t easy to come by in the colder regions of North America, especially during the winter. In the Dominican Republic, you can enjoy the tropical sun all year round and soak up all its benefits!

Enhanced Physical Activity

It can be hard to maintain regular outdoor physical activity in urban areas, especially during the dark and cold winter months.

Warmer, tropical climates like the Dominican Republic allow you to enjoy outdoor activities like swimming, hiking, and biking throughout the year. In coastal areas, it’s hard not to get outside all the time!

Lower Stress

Living on the tropical coast is much slower than metropolitan life. This slower way of life can be great for tackling stress.

Not only is the work culture more relaxed, but the cost of living in the Dominican Republic is a fraction of the cost in North America. Between the more relaxed pace and the lower prices, your stress levels will have no choice but to decrease.

Fresh and Whole Foods

Living on the coast means one thing: good food. Fresh fish, seafood, fruits, and vegetables are abundant in areas like the Dominican Republic and are free of the preservatives and chemicals used on North American produce. Easy access to healthy, whole foods will help improve your body and brain, and reduce health issues like inflammation and arthritis.

Better Health and a Longer Life

As you can see, living in a coastal region can really do wonders for your health! In the Dominican Republic, you can enjoy warm weather and sunshine year-round, a wide variety of physical activities, rejuvenating seaside air, and, with avilla from Casa Linda, a luxurious lifestyle at a low cost!

Why Cabarete is Your Ideal Dominican Republic Destination

Why Cabarete is Your Ideal Dominican Republic Destination

Thinking about moving to a foreign country? Want to spend your days in the sun, sand, and surf? Relocate to Cabarete, Dominican Republic! While our country is full of beautiful towns and cities, Cabarete is the ideal location for North American expats looking for a new start.

We’re the Watersports Capital of the World, offer plenty of job opportunities, and the affordable Cabarete real estate market makes buying your home with Casa Linda a no-brainer. Here are a few reasons to consider Cabarete as your North Coast destination!

Tropical Living, Hurricane Free

Many people love the idea of living in a coastal region, but the idea of getting caught in hurricanes and tropical storms often stops them in their tracks. Cabarete, however, is one of the few Caribbean regions that is completely hurricane-free!

The North Coast’s geographic features, like the Mona Passage, large mountain range, and shallow coral reef, deter hurricanes and keep Cabarete’s population safe and sound. You don’t need to worry about weather-proofing your villa during peak storm season—you’ll be too busy enjoying your time in the sun!

Safe, Low-Crime Community

You can enjoy safety and security in Cabarete from more than the weather. Our community is known for its very low crime rates! Petty theft and serious crimes are very uncommon, and our local authorities deeply care about the safety of residents and tourists alike.

Most residential communities, like Casa Linda, also have 24/7 security and surveillance to keep personal property safe from trespassers. Simply follow the safety precautions you do in your home country, such as securing valuables and not leaving your personal belongings unattended.

Low Cost of Living and a Booming Real Estate Market

The Dominican Republic is more than a sunny tropical paradise—it’s also an affordable one. Our cost of living is around 69% lower than that of the United States, while life in Canada is around 156% more expensive than in the DR.

You can enjoy Cabarete to the fullest by engaging in regular recreation and entertainment, purchasing fresh whole foods, dining out, and more without breaking the bank!

The Cabarete real estate market also offers a wide variety of price points, allowing you to buy a home that’s both affordable and beautiful. At Casa Linda, our luxury villas start as low as $199,700 and include your own landscaped lot and inground pool. You also get access to resort-style community amenities. Yes, you can get all the benefits of the “good life” while spending far less than you would in your home country.

You’ll also see great ROI on your villa investment. In 2024, houses in Cabarete’s gated communities appreciated by 8%, and are expected to keep growing!

A Growing Expat Community

Moving to a foreign country from North America can be daunting, especially in a country where English isn’t the first language. Luckily, Cabarete boasts a growing population of expats from Canada and the US, many of whom live in our Casa Linda communities!

Having a few North American neighbours can help ease the transition to island life by maintaining familiarity with your surroundings. Many of our residents have been here for several years, so you can get great advice from them on adapting to the Caribbean way of life!

Make a Home in Cabarete with Casa Linda

The Dominican Republic’s North Coast is home to many beautiful communities, and Cabarete is one you won’t want to miss out on. Our team at Casa Linda can help you make a new home in Cabarete with your very own luxury villa or townhouse.

 Enjoy a Hurricane-Free Coast in Cabarete, Dominican Republic!

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.
