Cabarete will again be the center of the toughest water sports event in the Caribbean, the challenging Master of the Ocean, now in its 14th year.
Some 60 competitors from 12 countries have registered to compete in the event, which takes place between 23 and 28 February 2016 at Encuentro Beach in Cabarete, Puerto Plata. The winner of the event is the best athlete in the combination of windsurfing, surfing, stand up paddle-boarding (SUP) and kite-surfing.
Competitors are coming from Israel, Canada, the United States, Puerto Rico, Venezuela, Germany and host Dominican Republic.
The event, which is organized by Marcus Bohm, also has the backing of the Ministry of Tourism.
Bohm says it is the only event held around the world where the athletes compete in four disciplines at the same beach.
The organizers are promising five days of competition, free-style expression sessions and a full program of musical events in and around Cabarete.
