LIFE IN THE CARIBBEAN
One of the longest white sand coasts in the Caribbean, a total of 48 kilometers, accented with coconut palms that seem to reach the sky, Punta Cana is the synonym of rest and relaxation in front of the sea. Here, where the Atlantic Ocean meets the Caribbean Sea, from the extreme north in Uvero Alto to the south in Cap Cana, all-inclusive resorts and boutique hotels offer all the pampering and comfort of modern waterfront living. Families will be able to enjoy miniature entertainment centers as well as water parks for children, while couples will find dream enclaves to celebrate weddings, with offers secluded on the beach for an even more romantic stay. But you will not only find fun in the sun, with fine white sand and a crystalline and iridescent sea for swimming, fishing, or taking a dip between marine life and sunken ships. Punta Cana is also a golfer's paradise, with 10 golf courses located along the coast, a beach escape with luxurious marinas and gourmet dinners, and a wellness area with the best spas in the country, including the only one Six Senses of the Caribbean.
Wherever you stay on this brilliant coast of Punta Cana, which has 11 Blue Flag certified beaches, try jumping from beach to beach to enjoy all its splendor. From the picturesque Macao surf-hub and the trendy beaches of Bávaro, Corales and Cortecito, surrounded by shops, water sports and bars facing the sea, to the isolated Juanillo beach, among others.
Spend a day away from the beaches and you will find endless land adventures. Cool off in the cenotes and freshwater lagoons hidden within the forest at Ojos Indígenas and Scape Park, where the youngest members of the family can also enjoy ziplines and cave expeditions. Explore the lush rural area of the Dominican Republic on a safari that will take you on a path full of butchers and sugar cane plantations. Along the way, visit the most important pilgrimage site in the country, the Basilica Nuestra Señora de la Altagracia, and feel the deep spiritual roots of the Dominican Republic.
If daytime activities are abundant, nights are no less. The young at heart will be able to dance the night away in the modern clubs in the Dominican Republic, while the marinas and beachfront lounges offer elegant nights under the stars, with cocktails, canapés and hand-rolled cigars.
Punta Cana is the escape of water, sun and sand par excellence.
Punta Cana International Airport (PUJ) is the best connected airport in the Caribbean and Central America, receiving flights from 26 countries and up to two million passengers a year. Since 2017, the area has also been a cruise destination thanks to the Marina Cap Cana, which now hosts small luxury cruises. By land, the Oscar de la Renta highway, also known as the Coral Highway, is less than an hour from the beaches and multiple attractions of La Romana, and just two and a half hours from Santo Domingo and its Colonial City.
