To reach Playa Fronton, you have to drive from the city of Samana to Las Galeras, there you got a few options. One, hire a boat from the beach in Las Galeras, or second option, in Las Galeras, drive till La Rancheta. and hike for a good 4.5 km to Playa Fronton.
Due to the beach orientation, North-South and a fairly high ridge bordering the beach, it's sunny till about noon, after that is in the shadow of the ridge, and what is a beach with out sun.
Do not attempt to reach Playa Fronton from Boca de Diablo, some people they still got the scars to prove that is not such a good idea.
Get more informations on the trail condition, from Ronald at La Rancheta.

Good luck,

lilwill05, I don't think it would be possible to get in on a quad, it is a foot path that goes in 45 mins to an hour walk. I would recomend going by boat with all the robberies on the road in it is safer!
