Samana

Several hours east of Puerto Plata is the undiscovered beauty of the Samana Peninsula. Nestled away amongst the coconut tree covered mountains and luscious tropical rain forests, this secluded area is fit for those who value relaxation and adventure.

Enjoy its unspoiled white sandy beaches in solitude while sipping on your favourite cool refreshing drink. There are plenty of activities available for the adventurer: horseback riding, swimming, snorkelling, diving, sailing and even whale-watching! Be one of the few who get to experience this world-renowned spectacle, where thousands of humpback whales gather to frolic in the turquoise waters during mating season (mid January to mid March).

Samana has many more attractions and entertainment close by as well. Try your luck at the casino, be mesmerised by the performers at the various shows, or celebrate with other night owls at one of the bustling bars.

Please note:Samana packages are offered via flights to Puerto Plata, with 3-4 hour ground transfer to Samana. Please check the Getting There information for day of departure from your city.
