And it does not matter what resort you choose here – Playa Bavaro, Playa Dorada or Puerto Plata – everywhere you will find fine, white sands, clear, warm waters and a lot of sunshine!
The Dominican Republic is washed by the waves of the Atlantic Ocean in the north and those of the Caribbean Sea to the south.
