What should I pack when moving to Boca Chica?
We asked people living in Boca Chica to list three things they wish they had brought and three they wish they had left behind. They responded...
"When moving to Boca Chica, Dominican Republic, you should pack lightweight and breathable clothing due to the tropical climate. Include items such as shorts, t-shirts, and sundresses. Don't forget to pack a few swimsuits for the beach and pool, as well as a hat and sunglasses for sun protection. Pack a light jacket or sweater for cooler evenings or air-conditioned places. Comfortable walking shoes or sandals are a must for exploring the local area. If you plan on dining out or visiting upscale venues, pack a few dressier outfits. Remember to pack all necessary toiletries, including sunscreen and insect repellent. However, keep in mind that these items can also be purchased locally. Bring any prescription medications you need, along with copies of your prescriptions. It's also a good idea to pack a basic first aid kit. Don't forget your passport, driver's license, and other necessary identification. Make copies of these documents and keep them separate from the originals. Pack your electronics, such as your phone, laptop, and camera, along with their chargers. A power adapter may be necessary depending on the type of outlets in the Dominican Republic. If you enjoy water sports, consider packing your own snorkeling or diving gear. Lastly, pack a Spanish-English dictionary or phrasebook to help with communication, as Spanish is the official language of the Dominican Republic," commented one expat who made the move to Boca Chica, the Dominican Republic.
