BOCA CHICA: Sun, Sand & Sex

Boca Chica is an exciting place to visit. However, it has a reputation as a sex town. It is possibly the sexiest place in all of the Caribbean. Though it's a place for families with children, you can't ignore the fact that it is a sexy destination.

A unique combination of atmosphere and intents; mutual attractions between foreigners and Dominicans, sexuality, money and love all blend and blur to create quite an interesting experience.

Offers ranging from massage to tour guide, done in exchange for money, gifts, opportunity or just dinner and drinks. At times it is explicit enough to be called prostitution by some, subtly enough to be called romance when described by others.

Here you have Dominican people, internationally recognized as being very attractive. The men tend to be lean, muscular, macho, forward, great lovers and sexually uninhibited. When added with gyrating-stlye dances, lively music, rum and coke or ice cold beer, you have an atmosphere with sexual overtones that is typical in this tourist town.

This short video clip explores the "Sankipanki" culture in Boca Chica, that of the male hustler. It's in Spanish, but you still get the jist of it even if you don't speak the language.
