Hi! I have been reading the posts and want to thank those for providing good info. My brother and I are looking at going next month for the first time and have heard BB's is a great place to start. We just want to know from those much more experienced at this if this is the way to go or should we look elsewhere like boca chica? Any guidance would be helpful. Thanks!
Barba Negra is a safe place to start. It has its disadvantages and detractors but you are guaranteed a good time there. Next trip, or indeed this trip, if either of you has adequate Spanish, you could possibly have a better time for a little less money by going elsewhere and accepting greater risks of things going wrong.Quote:

We are all different. It depends what you are looking for.
I hope you both have a great time. You would have to be really stupid or weird not to have one in the DR (though some have managed it!)
I have never been to Boca Chica but I understand that nowadays it is all washed up as a mongering centre for beginners. The few that still prefer to go there already have local knowledge.
I'll be finger banging those whores in august
T money, you are funny! Weyland, thanks for the info. I will be sure to give a report when we get back.:biggrin:
You're welcome, but I am more or less a newbie myself. I just put in here to spark off some replies by more experienced members.Quote:

You ain't a newbie anymore buddy. I now count you amoung the "more experienced members". :thumbsup2:
Hey! Don't want you guys to think we skipped out on a report, but we had a family emergency which caused us to cancel our trip. We will instead be going at the end of August /beginning of September so keep the info coming and we look forward to reporting the fun times we had when we go.:lol:
