Today was the second day in a row of major huelgas near our house. The issue is two commercial properties, one a hotel and one a small resort that offers day passes and overnight stays, who have blocked access to their beachfronts. It got pretty violent yesterday, police used tear gas and at least one person ended up hospitalized. It made SIN news. Today it happened again, tires burning, rioting, etc.
I know this is done elsewhere. I remember the Hamaca has a private area. Just west of us in Palenque there is a residential complex (Coconut Paradise) that has fenced off their beachfront.
What about the rest of DR? Is this commonplace? Is it permitted?
It’s a big beach, plenty of space, this seems to be an anger issue. These are the only two with hotel facilities.
