I went last May to Cienfuegos on the south coast, beautiful city. Then to the islands around Cayo Cinco Balas. Diving there is great. Need more info, let me know.

Default Sorry

I was only answering a specific question.
It is my boat, a 60' schooner, now in Jamaica. Before leaving the DR, I posted, asking for a crew, but all I got was jawing from the usual suspects.
Got a crew from the internet and set sail for Jamaica, Cuba, and Camen Brac, Then back to Jamaica, where I had to leave the boat due to med. emg.
Plan on moving the boat again in Jan. Jamaica to PR to north coast DR.

capt hook

ps, it takes about 3 months

May be you should think of making it a regular passenger service - if there are none at the moment !

A few years ago there was a weekly cruise from POP to Cuba which friends of mine took. Has it been discontinued?

I was born in Boston, but have moved to the South Shore. I love the DR and have been traveling there 2 or 3 times a year since 1987.
