Punta Cana: A Paradise on Earth

Punta Cana, Dominican Republic, is blessed with one of the Caribbean region’s longest white sand coastlines–a whopping 30 miles, punctuated with sky-reaching coconut palms–Punta Cana is the land of rest and relaxation by the sea. Here, where the Atlantic meets the Caribbean, from the northern tip at Uvero Alto to the southern at Cap Cana, all-inclusive resorts and boutique hideaways offer all the whims and comforts of modern beachfront living. Punta Cana has much to offer for all types of travelers, including romance for couples and fun for the whole family.

While Punta Cana is especially known for the paradisiacal beach vacation, there is much beyond the shoreline that Punta Cana has to offer. Home to some of the country’s best golf courses, fishing and spas, Punta Cana has it all.

Go Fish: Having one of the longest coastlines and coral reefs in the Caribbean makes fishing a popular activity in the region. Whether it’s deep-sea fishing, fly fishing or lagoon fishing, there’s something for all types of fishermen out there. Dominican Republic also hosts international tournaments for novice to professional throughout the year.

Seek Adventure: Ideal for those seeking adventure without distance, Bávaro Adventure Park offers nature-friendly and sustainable activities such as ziplining, a climbing garden, a Segway circuit, paintball, a bungee trampoline, flight simulators, and a mountain bike track.

Scape Park is a thrill-seeking oasis for all the family to enjoy. Whether swimming in the Hoyo Azul turquoise cenote, hiking the botanical gardens on-site and learning about orchids, ziplining past the thick canopy, horseback riding, or driving buggies through the wilderness.

Tee Up: Recently named one of the best golf resorts in the Caribbean, Punta Espada Golf Club boasts ocean views alongside the crystal-clear Caribbean Sea. Home to Jack Nicklaus’ first of two signature courses in the country, the 18-hole work of art boasts some of the best views in the Caribbean.
