Having gone to Sosua, 5 or 6 times in the last 3 years, I have to agree with your comments. But you can't go there without visiting Blackbeard during one week-end. Either the Bikini Contest or Miss World pageant worth the taxi cost, Blackbeard is in Costembar about an half hour, 40 minutes from Sosua. Alway's had a good time there, and as long as I keep going to DR, I will keep going there.
