Hi all,

I will be going to Sosua really soon and wanted to know what I should pack with me. I have never been here and have no idea what I should take besides clothes and personal stuff. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I would have to go shopping by Sunday if there is anything I should need to buy. Thanks.

Sunscreen, Spanish-English dictionary, casual clothes, comfortable shoes, sunglasses, sun hat and an open mind. Plenty of pharmacies to buy any personal items that you might need. Its a small town with windy streets. Beach is tree lined so you do not have to bake in the sun unless that is what you are looking for. There is a reef a little bit offshore of Sosua beach and you can rent a mask and fins. Its worth swimming out to see if you are comfortable in the water. Cabarete which is a small town off to the east has wind surfing and board surfing. Plenty to see and do in the local area. You will have a great time.

ipod ear piece, simply so you can ignore vendors without feeling guilty about ignoring all of them. Not compulsory but sure is easier than walking about muttering, 'no thanks', 'no', 'no', 'got some, no thanks', thankyou, no thanks', 'don't smoke', 'no thanks', eventually after several beers it will turn to 'Fck off please I told you earlier'. Stick your earpieces in a just drift on by.
I often walk around tourist resorts with my ear pieces in and no music playing, just a simple thing that takes away some of the irritants.

Although from memory Sosua never was that bad for Vendors around town.

Foam ear plugs for sleeping. Just in case your hotel room isn't very soundproof.

As far as Viagara, you'll have all kinds of people offering to sell you "vitamins" (viagara) on Pedro Clisante street.....
