Cabarete xmass and new years party

Happy new year!

2009 was a great year here in Cabarete, 2010 is going to be even better. 2009 was mostly about building the best surf camp in cabarete ( or the Caribbean ), and 2010 is all about the clients having a good time at Swell surf Camp in Cabarete, learning to surf at Swell’s surf school at Encuentro, learning to kitesurf / windsurf or any other active extreme sport that Cabarete has to offer.

We had a great batch of clients stay with us at Swell, in fact we were fully booked, which we are very happy about, since the more people stay at our new surf hotel, the better the vibe and socialising is.
How good is the vibe ?

See the pics from last night.

What we were doing? Drinking and then Jane taught us how to line and square dance. It was laughter all over the place.

It’s great to see that all the guests get along so well; A hostel vibe with the comforts of a hotel

The surf?
The surf has been all time, firing, consistent,. head high place and many all day glassy days.
We took the clients to a spot out of town, and scored. No one else out, head high and glassy, can you imagine a better xmass?

Dinner has been a great social event in Cabarete’s most private ( and exclusive ) restaurant

I think the above pictures prove that if you are an active person looking for a great surf holiday in the Caribbean, then Swell surf camp is the best choice…. guaranteed.

hasta pronto.

SUP Dominican Republic

Swell Surf Camp Admin — Fri, 24 Jul 2009 14:23:44 +0000

Just came back from an excellent SUp ( stand up paddle surfing ) session at our ’semi’ secret spot.

It was excellent. Glassy, head high and very long rides. My surfing buddie came out and was the first to test the new naish 11′6” SUP that we will be using for the Swell cabarete Surf camp.

He seemed to really like the board since he was catching plenty of good long rides with it. I was out with the 11′4” Naish SUP and also caught a good bunch of waves.

Naish SUP

The forecast looks good for the rest of the week as well, for all sports: Surfing will be good for at least 5 days the coming week. SUP every day of the week, and the kite and windsurfers should also be happy with a good 18-25 knots wind forecast here in Cabarete.

Tha’s why Swell Surf camp here in the Dominican republic is your ultimate boarders paradise for all watersports.

See you this winter in the water for a Stand up Paddle session on the reef?

Hasta pronto.

Surf Holiday Caribbean (choices)

Swell Surf Camp Admin — Mon, 20 Jul 2009 18:06:55 +0000

Today we ordered the pool loungers for the surf hotel and very nice they are too. With every decision that we make about the camp, we have a mind to the choices you have in booking your surf vacation or surf holiday. We are also doing research into the ceiling fans for the rooms and making sure that we choose a fan that has an Energy Star rating + a very high airflow performance.

Jim is currently designing a page for the Swell website which will enable you to book on line using PayPal. That will be up and running a few days from now. You will still be able to contact us for any questions you might have but if you already know that a surf holiday in the lovely warm Caribbean waters is what you want, it will be easy for you to book with a simple 3 step process.

Step 1. tell us via email when you want to come.

Step 2. we tell you if we have space or not.

Step 3. go online to select the room and other options.

Easy……

Hasta Pronto Amigos
