We spent two weeks at Villa Ribera Mar, about a 5 minute walk to the sailing club. Very laid back with a couple guys who (kinda) speak enough English to arrange for paddle boards, kayaks, sailboats (hobie wave and a bigger cat) sunfish and lasers. As we got the "member" price we rented paddle boards for about $3 for an hour and the hobie wave for $10. You can sail within the bay or further out past the line of breakers, though you are supposed to stay where they can see you in case you get into trouble. No paperwork, no hassles!

This is a small sailing club (non profit association) that offers sailing lessons to kids, organizes sailing camps, rents Lasers, Sunfish,Hobie cats and Optimist. With or without a captain. The Club is located on the prettiest beach section of Las Terrenas, sail out from the wide lagoon (great for kids and beginners) and once outside the reefs like clock work the trade winds pick up at 12 noon sharp.

Rental prices and lessons are a fraction of what it can cost in the North America and Europe.…
