Samana

Where is Samaná?

Samaná is a beautiful peninsula in the north of the Dominican Republic. An unspoiled oasis on the Atlantic coast. One of the Dominican Republic’s most inviting destinations where you can relax without keeping an eye on the clock and watch life pass by from a picture-postcard beach.

You will fall in love from the moment you arrive: Playa Rincón, Las Terrenas, Cascada Salto del Limón… and villages full of charm such as Los Pescadores, where you’ll find this area’s liveliest nightlife.

This ancient peninsula is friendly and humble, where the color of its traditional houses, lushness of its forests and tranquility of its coconut palms are all blended together with a skyline of white, sandy beaches and crystal-clear water.

What to do during your vacation in Samaná?

Samaná is a place that has areas of great natural beauty which leave everyone that sees them breathless: Cosón, Las Galeras, Cayo Levantado, El Valle and Punta Bonita beaches…

Did you know that every year from January to March, humpback whales return to this area? They travel here to reproduce in the warm waters of the bay. The natural spectacle created by these whales coming from the northern seas to this small corner of Samaná is unique. Some weigh as much as 40 tons and sing as they leap and glide about in these waters in order to find a mate to guarantee the future of their species.

You can enjoy this and many more experiences from hotels in Samaná, such as the incredible view from Puente de los Cayos. From the Samaná pier, visitors can see the beautiful yet imposing pedestrian bridge that joins these small cays. This spectacular walk over the sea, with its lush, green surroundings, will leave you speechless as you marvel at the beautiful views towards Santa Bárbara.
