The town of Jarabacoa (pop. 40,000),
located in the A 45 minute drive southeast of
Santiago, in the heart of the Cordillera Central mountain range,
you'll find Jarabacoa. This town has been a popular summer place
for wealthy Dominicans for some time but adventure-sports tourism
has made it increasingly more so. The town itself is quite enjoyable whether you participate in these activities or not, offering a nice temperate climate, good restaurants and hotels, and nightly baseball games at the field on Calle la Confluencia. With a population of 40,000, Jarabacoa
offers endless possibilities to discover the unknown in the
Dominican Republic, its native flora and fauna, exuberantly
colored gardens and spectacular views, along with the warm quality
of its people who are engaged in flowers, vegetables, fruit
and top-quality coffee production. And let us now forget that
Jarabacoa also has culture to offer: painters, works of art
and frescoes in the church in town.
Your visit will include a refreshing dip, a spectacular view, an easy walk down a path bordered by exuberant vegetation, wild fruit and palm trees. You will see and hear colorful and melodious birds. Don't miss the chance to encounter these two founts of life in our mountains.
