The beaches of Boca Chica are protected by a coral reef that forms a lagoon, the depth of which does not exceed 1.5 meters, so it is safe for children. If Punta Cana has the best hotels and resorts for a holiday, then Boca Chica has the best beaches withthe finest sand and the clearest water.
Santo Domingo

There are no beaches in this city where you can swim, despite being located on the coastline.

When relaxing in Santo Domingo, be sure to visit the Columbus Lighthouse, which is located in the eastern part of the city on a hill. At the lighthouse there is a museum with the remains of Columbus and other interesting monuments. To relax on the beach, you can go to coastal villages, which are a 40-minute drive from the center, and enjoy the clear sea.
Samana
This is a place for those who prefer an individual holiday and do not want to share the beach with other tourists. Samana is considered a truly wonderful and mysterious place, which for some unknown reason has not yet settled down by tourists. The beaches there are also protected by a coral reef, but in addition to people relaxing on them, you can meet huge sea turtles, humpback whales andmany kinds of birds.
La Romana
This city is preferred by tourists due to the fact that it has an international airport, and Santo Domingo is located 131 kilometers away, which is very close and convenient.
