Taxi or Car Rental
It is Best to rent a car as it’s much cheaper than taxis. When driving here - be patient and drive defensively with all eyes behind, front and sides! Always pay attention -watch for motorbikes going around you on both sides, watch for pot holes, huge speed bumps, cows and dogs-other then that it’s safe. There are lots of Taxis available if you are not comfortable driving, This is a small seaside beach town so no Uber here in Sosua yet. Taxis one way from airport to Sosua can run anywhere from $25 to $30 usd. A 5-10min trip from beach to store to villa is about $10 usd one way.
