La Romana's Brilliant Beachfront Allure

Although perhaps less well-known than Punta Cana, La Romana is one of the Dominican Republic’s top tourism destinations, also located on the country’s southeastern coast. It’s only a twenty-minute drive from the Casa de Campo International Airport, less than an hour by car to Punta Cana and under two hours from the capital of Santo Domingo.La Romana’s eco-friendly, spectacular white-sand beaches and bright turquoise waters stretch from Dominicus to Bayahíbe along the pristine Caribbean coastline, bounded by lush tropical jungle and vast fields of sugarcane beyond. This diverse landscape offers an endless array of outdoor activities.MORE Hotel & Resort La Romana’s Cotubanamá National Park—among the island’s most-visited natural reserves—is filled with freshwater springs that flow among cave-riddle forests where Taino rock art can be found; and extends over part of the sea to the offshore Saona, Catalina and Catalinita, whose unspoiled sands are lined with turtle nesting sites.Some of the island’ s most breathtaking diving locales are in the waters right off Bayahíbe. ScubaCaribe, located on the beach at the Hilton La Romana All-Inclusive Adults-Only Resort, operates a PADI 5-Star Dive Center and Water Sports Center.This company takes aquatic adventurers on sight-seeing tours of the area’s majestic coral reefs and underwater caves, exploring the remains of shipwrecked galleons and encountering a kaleidoscope of tropical marine life.Apart from diving, resort guests can take advantage of opportunities for local snorkeling excursions, a sunset catamaran tour, banana boat rides and tours of the offshore islands.
