Playa Sosua Beach and Playa Alicia Beach Dominican Republic |Drone Footage DJI Mavic 2 Zoom 4k Video
Sosua Dominican Republic New Drone Footage of Playa Sosua beach and Playa Alicia. I used my DJI Mavic 2 Zoom to record this video. Playa Sosua is like no other beach I've ever seen. Enjoy the Aerial view of both beaches and let me know what you think.
I wanted to fly the drone out further in the ocean but I was alerted that I was about to enter a no-fly zone so you need to fly with extreme caution because there is an airport that is close.

Sosua is a town on the north coast of the Dominican Republic just east of the Puerto Plata Gregorio Luperon International Airport (POP). Sosua is known for its beach, Sosua Beach or Playa Sosua. That beach has some of the calmest water on the north coast because it is located in the horseshoe shaped Sosua Bay and also sheltered from the open ocean by coral reefs offshore. The area was developed commercially as a tourist destination in the 1980s, and today Sosua Beach is one of the busiest and most heavily commercialized beaches on the north coast of the Dominican Republic. There are lots of people (both locals and tourists), lots of vendors, and shacks selling food and souvenirs. The beach separates 2 different parts of Sosua- the tourist-oriented El Batey district and Los Charamicos, where more Dominicans live.
But Sosua Beach isn't the only beach in the town of Sosua. Playa Alicia aka. Playa Sin Salida is another beach in the town. It was formed around 2003 by a storm that deposited lots of sand and the location. Before the storm, there was no beach, and the ocean came right up to the foot of the cliffs that now overlook the beach. Playa Alicia is east of Sosua Beach near to Hotel Waterfront. If I remember correctly, the beach is at the north end of Calle Dr. Rosen (Dr. Rosen Road).
Playa Alicia is much quieter and less commercialized than Sosua Beach. There aren't any vendors or shacks. There are far less people. The water may not be a gentle or safe for swimming, though, since it is less sheltered than Sosua Beach. On the day I took this video, there was heavy rain. I had to take shelter under the stairwell until the rain stopped. In the video you can see the rainwater draining from the street above and towards the beach. Afterward, the sun came out again and there were rainbows on the horizon.
Above the beach is a small park. The park has a concrete Star of David in the middle of it. There's also an Israeli flag (I think) flying beside a Dominican one above the park. During the Second World War, Dominican leader Rafael Trujillo allowed Jewish refugees from Nazi German-ruled Europe to settle in El Batey, Sosua. As a result, Sosua became the main centre of the Dominican Republic's Jewish community.
