Unlike those tiny Caribbean
islands where you can see and do everything in a single afternoon,
the Dominican Republic is a rather big island ~ the size of
Massachusetts, Connecticut, and Rhode Island combined. It's
about five times bigger than Jamaica. It's safe to say you could
take years experiencing and exploring everything this island
has to offer.
Activities that are a reasonable distance from the
villa:
• Championship
golf
• Horseback riding (mountains or beach)
• Scuba diving
• Snorkeling
• Deep
sea and surf fishing
• Hiking (National Park or mountains)
• Whale watching (in season)
• Caving and cave
diving
• River boating
• Windsurfing (Cabarete,
only 45 minutes away, is the windsurfing capital of the America's)
• Mountain biking
• Water sliding at the waterpark
• Cable car riding
Venturing further afield, consider these options:
•
Mountain climbing
• Whitewater rafting
•
Explore a 400 year-old Spanish fort
• Play more championship
golf courses
• Discover waterfalls and cascades where
you can walk or swim down the mountain. (These make Dunn's river
falls in Jamaica seem tame and small.)
• Visit the
famous rum or cigar factories.
• There are several
nice restaurants in the area, a small casino, and a local disco
where you can shake your booty all night long. (Contrary to
what you hear in the States, dancing, not baseball, is the true
Dominican passion!)
