Let me say this folks. Take Boca Chica for example. I truly like Boca Chica. When I feel like I need a little touch of "pueblo"(people feeling Dominican style) there is nothing better than Boca Chica. BC is the true Dominican beach. The one that reflects what DR is all about:sex, corruption,fun,beautiful sands, warm knee high water,coconuts, stray dogs, street vendors(which I hate not because of their merchandise, but because of their selling tactics)prostitution, cheap and expensive prices,noise, street brawls, bad food but fun to eat, and so on.
But then you'll notice that Boca Chica has two different worlds. There is sort of a Berlin wall that separates the rift raft from tourists and Dominicans with better taste and behavior. On the east side of the beach dominated mostly by waterfron hotels and restaurants is Boca Chica's priviledged. Those who can afford to pay for chaise lounges, tables and chairs and can pay for what they consume. This is the area I always stay. It is peaceful within reason. You can actually enjoy the beach and girls in bikinis with no problems. You see beautiful people. Great friendly tourists make your day. I meet many an Englishman or Italian and talk about all kinds of stuff and share drinks.
This selective area(not segregated by any means except that somehow people there behave) is in existence thanks to private ownership. It is regulated within reason by the owners, Politur and the people itself.
Then there is the West side of the beach. The "Dominican side". This is tigueraje at its best. This is beach anarchy. Dirty. disorganized. no rules. free for all. girls show their bikinis at their own risk. free grab ass. If you step on my foot I slap you in the face. no swimming rules. the beach is your toilet.we buy no services, we bring it. cooking in the beach.no garbage cans or bags.Politur is afraid to go in there. bring your own pet or dog to do it in the beach.glass bottles allowed. bring and show your guns and knives. This is no-man's land. So much for the public beach argument.
ALL IN THE SAME BEACH!!! Which one do you prefer? NOUGH SAID!!!
