Boca Chica? Skip it!

[snwbrdr015]

Even tho I’m a fan of Santo Domingo, where the hung boys are a plenty, I have to inform you about Boca Chica. Because my God, what a total dump this place is. 

Boca Chica is the ‘go to’ beach resort you go to from Santo Domingo if you like a beach break. They should rename this shithole into ‘Junkyard Beach’. The streets, the ally’s and yes the beach and water are completely littered with (plastic) garbage. The whole area is simply a pile of waste. On top of that you get hassled by street vendors with every step you take. I mean, I’ve been around. Traveled to many (less developed) countries. But this place is like fucking Monrovia, Africa during the Sierra Leonian civil war! It’s too much shit. After dark the female prostitutes come out to give an extra kick to the place. More of a kick in the nutsack if you ask me. So at night your strolling around through a gone to waste junkyard city filled with litter and dirty hoes. At the beach they rip you a new asshole every time they present the bill. You start of with a (overpriced) 200 peso beer and 450 pesos snack, but hey…you’re at the beach enjoying people watching. You and up with a 1500 pesos bill because of taxes (shitty, but normal), service charge and a fucking ‘table charge’ because you use the table as 1 person (eventho the rest of the tables are empty). Yes, I hooked up with hot guys and checked out the local love motel for a trio (since my hotel was strictly no visitors). But that prime meat can easily be found in Santo Doming or be taxied in from here. So:
 

Bocha Chica? Fuck it. Skip it. 
 

Special note to my locally stumbled upon US friends (and forum readers): you guys are awesome. Thanks for the laughs!
 

(And then this delightful surprise from a local 19-year old to end on a positive note 🙂 )

Good to know. I don’t sunbathe at my age due to dermatological cancer risks so no draw for me anyway. May as well stick to the people watching part right in downtown El Condé etc. I have daytime strolled along the coast road in south Colonial zone for a not unpleasant view of the water and there is a decent small peninsula or outcrop somewhere in that area. But Montesino Beach there would be a scavenger’s bonanza if they could get pennies by plastic weight/volume.

Thx for the warning )-:

What's the going rate for these hung guys ?

[snwbrdr015]

The thing with rates is: if it’s a low rate I normally don’t trust the guy. I feel that I must be on my wits more than usual. When a guy quotes DOP 3000 or over usually it comes out overpriced. In my experience they can look fantastic (muscled, tall, handsome and hung) but they are terrible in bed, can’t get hard and don’t cumm. It’s not always the case, but it’s the rule I fly by.
Fun anekdote: the hot, ripped stud quoted me 200 US dollar. I declined. He instantly dropped to an avatar DOP 2500 (50 USD) after which he asked for 70 dollars. I blocked the guy. He was bullshitting too much. 
 

in short:

DOP 1000 (low side; be vigilant) - DOP 3000+ (high-end, be suspicious)

I paid 2500 DOP = $46 almost 3 years ago. I see rates havent changed.

Snowboarder you are Right.

That Beach town is a Fucking Dump and getting worse.  Its sad because there are sexy boys there that you wont find in SDQ.  But, its not worth the trip.  Besides, the uber drivers play too many games.

Absolutely agree. I went to Boca Chica and couldn't get out fast enough. I'd booked a room, and even though I was losing money, I contacted a place I'd stayed at In Las Terrenas, made a reservation, and went there instead (even though I knew I would not be having any sex there). I'd passed through Boca Chica on a previous trip and it looked nice, and I'd read some hot stories on another site, but no one mentioned the whores and the constant hassling you experience. Definitely not worth the trip.

I went to Punta Cana for a family wedding a long time ago and I also booked a hotel room in Boca Chica for a week so I could experience a real town as opposed to the inclusivo. Huge mistake. The first night a somewhat scary guy sat with me at a quiet cafe while his friends sat down nearby. He picked up right away that I was gay. He didn't get abusive about that, but it was clear I had to pay him money or perhaps face consequences. There was a holiday weekend and drunk guys at the beach were getting into fights, which to be fair is common in Canada's bar districts, but I don't stick out there, ripped off at mom and pop food concessions and female prostitutes and pimps everywhere. There were lots of European men for female, and some women for male, hookers. The hotel desk clerk asked me if I wanted a woman. I considered asking the clerk later about a guy, but was worried about an underage person being sent.... and on a whole unfair to the people because that town was not representative of the people in DR. One nice thing, a police officer in Boca Chica made a teenager on a motorbike give me a ride to my hotel because he was concerned about safety. The teen didn't look happy about it, but he did it, and of course I gave him some money.

Boca Chica was already a dump 20 years ago. No beach town in the Caribbean is going to be a "real town," but I enjoyed the beaches in the north, which were geared more toward independent, activity tourists than to packaged tour tourists. That makes a difference. The beach butler I had there was a night-and-day difference from what Snwbdr describes. He was attentive, helpful, watched my stuff when I was swimming (an issue for solo travelers), and probably kept the other hawkers away.
