Current Offer: Save up to 59%
The Dominican Republic promises to pamper YOU with endless miles of white-sand beaches, luxury resorts, exciting golf courses, gastronomy and when you’re ready... enchanting off-the-beaten path adventures! The most diverse Caribbean nation offers it ALL! Dance to the rhythms of merengue in a charming town square. Try kite surfing in Cabarete. Explore national parks and mesmerizing shipwrecks on a scuba diving excursion. Relish in Unesco World-Heritage sites and feel immersed in the country with the most hospitable people on earth!
In the north of the country, in the province of El Seibo, there is a destination that has it all: more than 30 miles of beaches, plains, beautiful mountains and rivers, besides a rich culture and exquisite gastronomy. These attributes make the municipality of Miches a complete and unmissable local experience in the Dominican Republic.
Miches is a destination that attracts adventurers looking for an enticing experience to break out of the routine, nestled between hills and mountains following the course of the rivers. Adventurers leave their mark by getting in touch with the local communities, getting to know their personal stories and visiting waterfalls that touch the hearts of those who pass through Salto la Jalda, El Cocuyo, Salto Grande, Los Marrones, El Jobo, Los Prietos and El Yabón.
Jutting out of the DR’s northeastern shore and basking in the ocean, the nature haven that is the Samaná Peninsula is as coveted today as it was in the 16th century. Samaná is well connected by land and air, yet it remains the DR’s secluded, paradisiacal escape of wild beaches, coconut plantations, and rainforests. It’s as if the approximately 2,500 humpback whales that visit Samaná Bay every year appreciate this natural splendor as much as visitors do. Aside from seasonal whale watching boat excursions in Samaná’s scenic bay, more ecotourism adventures are a stone’s throw away: body-boarding and kitesurfing in Las Terrenas; trekking, birding, and caving in Los Haitises National Park; canyoning or horseback riding to reach El Limón waterfall; and so much more.
Puerto Plata’s natural bounty continues to astound those who lay eyes on La Novia del Atlántico, or as locals call it, the Atlantic’s Darling. A bird’s eye view from the cable car–the only one in the Caribbean, taking passengers to Mount Isabel de Torres and its lush botanical gardens–reveals part of an Atlantic coastline with more than 100 kilometers (62 miles) of beaches gracing multiple coastal villages, inland farming communities replete with rivers and falls, and hotels of all sizes to suit all tastes. To boot, Puerto Plata is home to colonial vestiges, including the largest collection of preserved 19th century Victorian-style houses in the Caribbean, the oldest amber fossils in the world on display at the Amber Museum, and one of the first colonial period fortresses in the region at Fortaleza San Felipe, dating back to 1577.
