The Dominican Republic is a country of green
jungles, luscious
white beaches and historical
architecture some going back to the days of
Columbus whodescribed The Dominican Republic
as “the fairest land under heaven”.
Puerto Plata is the largest city on the North coast
(the so-called amber coast) established in the year
1502. The San Felipe fortress is considered the oldest
on the American continent. The airport at Puerto
Plata is approximately 40 minutes away by
car.
Cofresi beach is one of the most breathtaking
beaches
in the Dominican Republic, named after the legendary
Caribbean pirate Robert
Cofresi. It is often called
“the beach of beach lovers” because of
its hanging
palms and untouched golden sand. Perfect
for cooling
down after a day relaxing in the Caribbean sun or
for
romantic moonlit strolls.
The Dominican Republic is a tropical country, with
300 days of sunshine a year.
Average temperatures
are around 25C/77F on the coast,
rising to 30C/86F
and above from June to October. So the breeze
coming in off the Atlantic Ocean is
natural air-conditioning!
