Beach holidays Dominican Republic

Wherever you are in the Dominican Republic, you will find long, wide, golden sand beaches festooned with coconut and palm trees, lapped by the clear blue waters of the Caribbean Sea or Atlantic Ocean. The Dominican Republic is blessed with more than 300 miles of beautiful golden sandy beaches and beautiful countryside, from mangrove swamps to mountain ranges and waterfalls. Add to this heady mix the clearest, most inviting seas you'll ever swim in and you’ll see why beach holidays here are so tempting.

Traditionally a place for being a quintessential island paradise, Cayo Leventado possesses two of the Dominican Republic’s loveliest beaches. The larger beach, Playa Grande, is the more developed of the two, but the marvellous Playa Honda is only a 15-minute walk away.

The island of Saona is one of the prettiest islands, and most unspoilt part of the country. The island is protected as part of the Parque Nacional del Este and its beaches are in pristine condition with classic white sands and swaying palm trees.

Celebrate Easter Thursday - an important day in the Dominican calendar – by going to the beach and partying with lots of rum. Street parties in the resorts are also popular - so don't miss one of these during your Domincan Republic beach holiday. Entire streets are blocked off, for people to dance, drink and mingle along the string of bars that line the coast.
