Dominican Vacations
The capital of the Dominican Republic is Santo Domingo, which is the point of commencement for any journey deeper into the soul of this Caribbean Island. It has deep cultural and historical roots. Discovered by Columbus in 1492, the history of Dominican Republic is bloody and eventful. A walk down the oldest street of the new world called Calle de las Damas in Santo Domingo's colonial zone is an experience that can only be felt.
The Dominican Republic of today offers almost every amenity and luxury that money can afford from casinos to well-furnished resorts. Most of the resorts offer beachfront views, swimming pools, sauna and massage parlors, and tranquility. The Dominican Republic sports a perfect year round weather and if you are tired of the sugar-white beaches then head straight for the mountain retreats of Jarabacoa and Constanza.
Adventure is written all over Dominican Republic and the best place to get adventurous is in the Caribbean Mountains, which is home to the highest mountain, Pico Duarte. But the most exotic natural beauty on this island is the Lake Enriquillo, which is the largest in the Caribbean's and is one of the few saltwater lakes in the world with a healthy population of crocodiles. And that's not all - from sprawling golf courses to riding the waves at Cabarete; from WhaleWatching along Península de Samaná to deserted beaches and lagoons of Playa Limon; from scuba diving into the tropical reefs of Playa Fronton to hiking through the ancient caves of Reserva Antropológica El Pomier, Dominican Vacations is like a dream come true!
