Punta Cana

Punta Cana

Want to experience the best of the beach, culture, and adventure? Look no further than the pivotal province of Punta Cana. At the very eastern tip of the island, where the Atlantic Ocean meets the Caribbean Sea, this sizzling region has the right components for discovering the best of the DR. From the azure waters of Bavaro to the sugar sands of Cap Cana, these beaches are some of the best in the world. Resorts of every shape, size, and service have been constructed coast-side and offer endless choices in the sun. As a major hub for travelers, this area is full of activity. Zip lining, horseback riding, fishing, golf, you name it, you can find it in Punta Cana. And thanks to its close proximity to the country’s capital Santo Domingo, Los Haitises National Park, and other significant historical sights, you’re never far from experiencing the real DR.

Get the Low Down on the DR

Church in Samana

Adventures are in no short supply in the Dominican Republic. Step off the beaten path and immerse yourself in an area of the island seldom seen by the average traveler but definitely worth the trip. Encounter captivating history and unmatched natural beauty on a Liberty Travel Insider Experience to Samana. After a scenic drive through the country, you’ll stop to wonder at the majestic mountains of Miches Natural Reserve before meeting your guide and boarding a Catamaran. You’ll cruise through crystal blue waters towards the Samana Penninsula and, if you’re lucky, catch a glimpse of a migrating humpback whale.

Limon Waterfall

Dock in Samana Town for a walking tour of this vibrant port village. Then, ride by horseback or hike on foot to the captivating Limon Waterfall and take a refreshing dip in the natural pools below. After a fresh seafood lunch at nearby beachside restaurant El Timon, get back on board your trusted sea vessel sailing to Cayo Levantado Island. This tiny paradise is the perfect spot to relax, swim, and sunbathe. Return to Punta Cana in the early evening feeling rewarded and enriched by the illustrious DR.
