A different side of the Dominican Republic
The Samaná Peninsula is known for beaches, green landscapes, coastal communities and nature experiences. Las Terrenas, Santa Bárbara de Samaná and Las Galeras each offer a different base.
Seasonal whale watching
Whale-watching excursions operate seasonally and depend on marine conditions. Confirm the operating period, departure point, duration and transportation before finalizing the trip.
Arriving and moving around
El Catey International Airport serves the peninsula, while private long-distance routes can connect Samaná with Santo Domingo, Punta Cana and other regions. Allow realistic travel time.
