Hi.... - Hi... My name's Mike Cloud I lived in the Caribbean for 15 yrs. from 1970 til 1985. I was mostly living and working in Rincon, P.R. as a surfboard builder and airbrush artist. I surfed Dom. Rep. in 1971-1972-1973 duriing that time I was bringing boards, t-shirts, wax, surf mags, baggies and surfing movies over for the local surfers, these items were not available anywhere on the island. Red Beach was one of my fav. spots there as the wind would funnel thru the mts. and blow hard offshore. There were maybe 50 surfers in the entire country at that time. I remember we would all go to the same spot when I came over and have a big beach party... talk about instant crowd! I remember Alex Rude, Tom Buzbee, Jose Pepin, and Alex Arvello. I have been trying to locate an old girlfriend, Betsy Arvello to find out whatever happened to her. If there's anyone from this site who can forward my e-mail address to any of these people I'd appreciate your help. Thanks, Mike Cloud mikecloud92024@yahoo.com

Surf in DR - There are waves in Punta Cana but don't bother to take your board you'll never find it, most of the locals don't even know (myself included). As far as Puerto Plata it's a good idea to take your board as you could score some world class waves, just be ready to get a 30 min ride to Sosua.

South Coast -Bahia de las aguilas? - I am going in July. Don't know if I should bring my board. Seem it would get S.-SW. from storms.

Any info would be greatly appreciated!!!!!
