The Dominican Republic is a Caribbean paradise known for its stunning beaches, lush mountains, and lively culture infused with music and dance. It offers a mix of relaxation and adventure, from the white sands of Punta Cana to the historic charm of Santo Domingo, the oldest European-settled city in the Americas. Visitors can explore tropical rainforests, waterfalls, and colonial architecture, or dive into vibrant local life with merengue, baseball, and delicious island cuisine. Whether you’re hiking in the highlands or lounging under palm trees, the Dominican Republic delivers unforgettable tropical experiences.
Hurricane Season: June–November — check forecasts and consider travel insurance.
Major airports: Punta Cana (PUJ) for beach resorts. Santo Domingo (SDQ) for capital and colonial sights. Puerto Plata (POP) for north coast beaches. Samaná (AZS) for a quieter, nature-rich area.
Car rental is possible, but driving can be chaotic.
