A beautiful place that recounts the history of hundreds of years; just outside this colonial city is the city centre, where the large infrastructures of buildings, avenues, restaurants, bars, and shopping centres are located.

Los Tres Ojos National Park – The Three Eyes National Park, an open-air limestone cave system, is a place where unique underwater caves offer an exuberant experience. You will find that this is a Dominican treasure and an area of national heritage.

It is in one of the most charming Caribbean areas offering some of the best beaches in the world. Its sands are white and fine, the waters offer incredible visibility and are full of colourful tropical fish.

Bahía de las Águilas beach and National Park  – Located in the southwestern zone of the Dominican Republic, this park is one of the most beautiful natural areas in the country, due to its large stretch of untouched beach with crystal clear water and white sand.

It is a popular destination for tourists who arrive in fleets of catamarans and small motorboats.
