General atmosphere/ feeling of the place
I was in Cabral few times, always in transit. The town is "strategically" located for everyone that wants to visit Polo (and its magnetic pole), or visit Duverge with Lake Enriquillo or Laguna de Rincon.

There is the other attraction near Cabral - Polo Magnetico; but like I already said before - it is not worth the hassle to get there - as the optic illusion almost doesnt exist and its nothing spectacular. 😉

How to get into Cabral / Roads Info
Road leading to Cabral from Barahona is in good condition; the same as road Duverge - Cabral.
The road connecting Cabral with Fundacion is unpaved and I wouldnt recommend it for the cars with low suspension...
