Ocean Dream is located at the western end of Cabarete beach. This is the best place to launch and land kites in Cabarete since the beach is very wide, more than 60 meters in some parts, so there is usually plenty of room to pump up your kite and layout your lines.

Offshore about 200 meters is a reef that often creates fantastic waves for perfect sideshore glassy wave riding. The swell is usually around 1 meter in the summer and can go up to 3 meters in the winter.

Aside from the Ocean Dream beach area Cabarete has several other excellent spots for kiteboarding including Kitebeach, Encuentro for 5 meter waves, and La Boca - flat water where the river meets the ocean. Downwinders are very popular on the north coast because of the safety due to predictable winds and almost constant beach access along the north coast. 10 mile downwind trips of two hours in Cabarete are a must.
