Sosua was the favorite beach of the families of Santiago.
Thus its initial tourist rise started.
The establishment of European Jews in 1940 created a great economic impact giving an impulse to the breeding and the milk industry.
Two small villages:
* El Batey, with a considerable tourist development, offering a multitude of bars, restaurants, disseminated in all its streets.
* Los Charamicos, a typically creole village.

Sosua has the largest artisanal market of the Atlantic Dimension offering shops all along the lane leading to the splendid beach of Sosua.
