I am afraid that the days of seclusion have almost gone as far as the East of DR is concerned. It was less than 10 years ago when the beautiful Dominicus beach was wide open to the public and there were numerous beaches in the Bavaro area to spend a peaceful day .

You’re right, not many left. A couple of years ago someone drove us down an unmarked dirt road in Nizao, at least a mile long, was almost creepy how deserted it was. Ended at a totally empty pristine Caribbean Sea beach. We never found that road again, if I didn’t have photos I’d swear I dreamed it.

I really hate that they are building that Playa Esmeralda that's one of my go-to spots to get away and meditate what a shame I used to call it my own private beach now corporate Greedy is ruining another great spot

There's another beach not too far that is still undeveloped and just as nice as Esmeralda. It's another west facing cove, but 5 times as big as Esmeralda, west of Club Med, you can find it by searching Carlyle Cove Miches in google maps, but warning, the road there is in bad shape, need a SUV or bike to get there. Locals are calling it Playa Ensenada, but this is just a generic beach name until it gets a permanent name. Word is, someone put a gate to restrict access to the beach, so it might be just a matter of time before some hotel takes this too, and poof, all Esmeralda coast will be under some rich person's control.

wonderful! another All-inclusive resort. This one will surely attract the intellectuals of the world and not the sheet metal workers union of Philly.

Take a look at the available coastlines & beaches...... your prediction is impossible

Not impossible, but very unlikely. Beach areas with a resort behind probably makes up 10%, perhaps 15% of the coastlines.

The thing is that people will often get a desire to visit a certain beach once it has a resort. Take Bávaro as an example. That's a mostly natural beach. Since the times of the Tainos up to the 1980's and even 1990's hardly anyone went there. Then the resorts were developed and now it's one of the most visited beaches in the DR. Everyone knows about Bávaro while a few decades ago hardly anyone knew about it. People will make it seem as it's 90% of the coastlines covered in resorts, but reality is something different.

It's similar to forest cover. The person that goes by what appears within eyesight from a highway or road, particularly if there are mountains newrby, will have a hard time believing that forest cover is actually increasing in the DR. What is visible from the road is a very tiny part of the entire rural scenery. Close to roads and many times in visible mountain slopes from the road it may appear forest cover is shrinking many times because it is in those areas due to increasing human activity, mainly farming and husbandry, and closer to cities and towns it's the growth of their urban mark as new buildings and neighborhoods are created. What isn't seen from any Dominican road is most of the terrain, especially in mountain areas and in remote areas. It's in those areas and in the mountains where the reforestation programs from the government and the privste sectors are taking place with much success. Forest cover is determined via satellite images. Most people living in the DR don't live in more than 80% of the country. In fact, a full 25% or so of the territory is covered in national parks and scientific reserves.

Another example would be poverty reduction. If one year poverty is around 40% and the following year it dropped to 39%, poverty decreased. Many people will find that hard to believe because all the people thst they know that were poor continue in poverty after the reduction. Plus, they "don't see" any difference in poverty as they travel around. But poverty did decrease, its simply that most people that were poor yestaerday will continue to be poor today. It takes a long time for poverty reduction to affect the poor people you know because of the nature of poverty reduction.

Generally, people don't know the full details of something and put greater emphasis on "seeing-is-believing."

Most beaches in the DR are deserted and that's not counting the ones in national parks by the coast.

In next 5+ years, every beach in DR will be filled up with AI's, private beach will no longer exist. Corporate greedy is the problem.

The DR government loves AI resorts and Cruise Ship Ports. Revenue is the name of that game. The next big thing is Pedernales.

Here on the north coast, we are pretty much ignored now that the two cruise ports are in Puerto Plata .
The only new thing to happen will be the development just east of Playa Dorada (Vin's Movie Studio, a few AI resorts and a couple thousand villas give or take across from Star Hills if it all comes to be) which seems to be starting up very slowly.

Years ago when I used to drive from PP to Cabrera twice a week I always wondered how long that desolation would last.

It reminded me of driving from Santiago to Santo Domingo in the seventies when the Autopista Duarte was a two-lane road with almost zero development.
