Punta Cana, D.R. is a classic tourist, beach destination. Surrounded by crisp blue waters, white sand beaches and full scale resorts, this is the perfect place to vacation. Dominican Republic has become increasingly popular to tourists in the last forty plus years. The friendly people and scenery makes it an attraction for all ages.
The Dominican Republic was my first big experience with traveling out of the country. I didn’t know much about the island before going there, but I did know it was located on the island of Hispanola with Haiti in the Caribbean Sea.
My parents and I stayed in one of the numerous resorts in Punta Cana that had every amenity we could ever ask for. Several restaurants, pools, spa amenities, live entertainment, beach/water activities and shopping. It was like a dream. There was something planned for us to do every single day we were there. We went cruising on a glass bottom boat, rode jet skis and went snorkeling on a reef off the beach and got to see so many tropical, exotic fish. There were locals constantly trying to sell their handmade items of clothing, jewelry, etc. I thought it was neat to get to mingle with the locals and see what kind of products they were making. There were nature hikes that could be taken and you could even go into town to see some of the sites. The food was amazing, along with the great weather while we were there.
Punta Cana, Dominican Republic is an absolutely beautiful place to travel. The resorts make the trip super convenient and you have everything you could ask for. This was the perfect way to ease me into international travel and I would go back in a heartbeat!
