On day three head to Jarabacoa. Visit the waterfalls in the afternoon, with white-water rafting or canyoning the next day. Head north to Cabarete, which has world-class water sports and mountain biking. There’s great diving and beaches in nearby Sosúa and Río San Juan – enough to keep you happy for several days. Next you’re off to Península de Samaná. If it’s mid-January to mid-March, go whale-watching. Otherwise take a boat trip to Parque Nacional Los Haitises to see the mangroves and cave paintings, or visit the waterfall near El Limón. Spend another two days hiking or boating to the beaches around Las Galeras. For more nightlife, base yourself in Las Terrenas. Allow for some relaxing beach time. The southeast is perfect – go for either deserted Playa Limón or perennially popular Bávaro and Punta Cana. Return to Santo Domingo. To the south- west is a spectacular drive to Barahona, and crocodiles in Lago Enriquillo. Spend a night or two before returning to Santo Domingo. 29 Península Las Terrenas de Samaná East Coast •# •# Península de Samaná #– É •# É Las Galeras Aeropuerto El Limón Internacional •# É Bahía de Samaná El Catey Samaná ATLANTIC f# OCEAN PLAN YOUR TRIP ÷# É É •# Parque Playa Nacional Limón Los Haitises É Bavaro •# É É It erar I n SANTO •# Punta É Cana DOMINGO É #_ É I e s •# Bayahibe CARIBBEAN SEA Península de 1 East Coast 5 WEEK DAYS Samaná Whether you fly into Santo Domingo or If you can, fly directly into Aeropuerto directly to the airport outside Punta Cana, Internacional El Catey, the closest airport allow a full day to explore the old colonial to the peninsula.

  • The Dominican Republic
    INTRODUCTION: The Dominican Republic (D.R), part of the Hispaniola island alongside the nation of Haiti, is the second largest island of the Greater Antilles; it’s total area, including adjacent islands, is 48,670 km ². The coastline extends some 1,668 km. and has an exclusive economic zone covering 238,000 km ². The littoral zone is defined as a public asset, and includes a strip of 60 meters from high tide. In the D.R. there is a close relationship between the socio-economic aspect and the coastal marine area. Historically, coastal areas have been the primary focus of urban development and tourism. These areas are the most populous and economically productive of the country; 70% of Dominican cities with over 10,000 inhabitants, and 75% of industries are located in coastal marine areas. Out of the 31 provinces, including the National District, 17 have coasts. Since the mid-60's D.R. has focused the economic and social development towards the use of their coasts for the development of the tourism industry, which is the most important economic activity of the country. Clearly, the future of D.R depends on the conservation and rational management of natural resources in these areas. The Dominican coasts are characterized by the high biodiversity that is offered by the different coastal marine ecosystems. These diverse ecosystems generate goods, and services that upkeep the socio-economic activities of the respective coastal communities, and therefore it is essential that they are carefully managed. The National System of Protected Areas (SINAP) is governed by the Protected Areas Sector Act of 2004 (law 202-04).

  • When Christopher Columbus Came Ashore in 1492, He Wrote in His Diary
    When Christopher Columbus came ashore in 1492, he wrote in his diary, “This is the most beautiful land that human eyes have seen.” He would leave members of his family behind to colonize the island and would return to it after venturing throughout the Caribbean. In his will, he asked to be buried in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic. It was to this island a group of 22, mostly graduate nursing students and faculty from University of San Diego (www.sandiego.edu) , along with one dentist, would travel as a mission endeavor, to improve the health of school children of a rural school. Excitement ran high as the emails & gmails flashed back and forth, final arranges were gelling into a final plan. Were we actually going to the Caribbean? Over six months in the planning, and after 8 prior visits to La Republica Dominicana (Dominican Republic in English, indigenous Taino Indians called it Quisqueya), the trip was finally coming to fruition. It was decided that now was the time to include dental care in the overall plan to help the needy families far into the mountainous area near the international border with Haiti. Destination, El Cercado, to work at the school, Fe y Alegria (“Faith and Gladness”); the goal, examine students and their families in health screening as well as undertake a couple of research projects, one having to do with new techniques for diagnosing diabetes compared to traditional methods. But after having seen the severe need in oral disease, this was the year to begin inclusion of emergency dental care.
