    06/2017 - PicaFlor location

    I have been asked for directions to PicaFlor, so I thought I would post them here for everyone.

    To get to PicaFlor from Sosua, you have to make your way to the main highway and start travelling in the direction of Cabarete. Go past super pola, go past the CMC hospital, go ONE ROAD PAST the entrance to Sosua Ocean Village, the road you want is the entrance to Playa Laguna. Go down that road (you will be going north), and eventually i think you make a left then a right. You will pass a 3 story shell of a building and PicaFlor is right there.

    Here it is in Google Earth



    I have been told you can also take the Sosua Ocean Village road which looks like it will take you straight there, but there are 2 gates you have to go through and you have to tell the guards where you are going. May or may not work I don't know.

    Here is PicaFlor itself



    Here is the old shell of a building that makes a good landmark. PicaFlor is right beside it.



    If I got anything wrong or if anyone has anything to add, please chime in.

    No offense but that is bad info. You do NOT take a left then a right after coming off the highway. You take a left off the highway and go all the way down until you can't go any farther and take a left,NOT RIGHT. Then go straight until you reach Picaflor. You will know you are close when the road goes to shit,dirt and pot holes. Also do NOT take the Sosua Ocean Village road as the guards at the gate will NOT let you through even if you try to bribe them.

    None taken QC, thanks for the corrections. I wasn't driving when I went and wasn't paying all that much attention.

    anyway, with that map, now nobody will get lost that's for sure!
