Things To Do

Punta Cana is situated on the easternmost tip of the Dominican Republic and is known for its 32 kilometers of beaches. However, there are many other fun and interesting activities to add to your vacation checklist. Bávaro beach is definitely worth a visit due to the large variety of amenities located on or near the sands, and has become a destination for tourists and locals alike for its 10 kilometers of unspoiled seashore.

Food & Culture

Traditional Food in Punta Cana is very much like… the sounds of merengue, a sultry rhythmic blend of flavors deriving from the rich food culture of Tainos (Aborigines), withSpanish and African roots.  Punta Cana is a unique place in the Dominican Republic, the #1 tourist destination in the country, and the Caribbean, offering experiences for the palate to satisfy people from around the world.  Punta Cana is a relatively new tourist destination that has transformed from a dense jungle to a beach sanctuary in just over 4 decades. While its history is brief, its surrounding areas are rich in history, and there are many museums to learn about local explorers and legends – as well as Dominican chocolate! You can take a tour of the chocolate museum and learn about the “”bean to bar”” process in the factory. No visit is complete without sampling the chocolate treats or taking part in a chocolate-making workshop.
