Punta Cana: for sun seekers

Punta Cana is the ultimate destination for anyone looking for luxury, peace and endless beaches. Punta Cana’s beach is over 25 miles long! With thousands of coconut palms nestled in the sand, it’s no wonder it’s called the “Playa del Cocos”.

A Dominican favorite

Dominicans love Punta Cana. The one word best describing the island is probably ‘relaxed’, something Dominicans are all too happy to put into practice on some of the most beautiful sandy beaches in the world. Experience paradise in this world of perfect peace while soaking up the sunshine. Be sure to take a moment or two to dive into the sparkling blue waters and explore the magnificent underwater world.

Get to know the natives

Many of the descendants of the Dominican Republic’s original inhabitants are still walking around in Punta Cana. Want to learn about the native Indian culture? Visit Manatí Park and the replica Taíno Indian village. If you’re lucky, you may even be invited to participate in one of the ritual dances regularly performed there!
