If you are going to spend a few days there and want to get to know the area a little, beyond the limits of your hotel, here we tell you the essential things to see and do in Punta Cana to make the most of your trip.

  • 12 Must-See And Do Things in Punta Cana this Year

If you’re someone who prefers to explore every corner, Punta Cana is the ideal place for water activities such as kayaking, windsurfing and snorkeling, or simply taking a boat trip, whether it’s to party, dive with sharks, journey to another island, or tour the aquamarine coastline. So read on to find out all you can do in Punta Cana besides sunbathing.

1. Visit El Macao Beach

Very close to the tourist Playa Bávaro is Playa El Macao, one of the most beautiful places to see in Punta Cana. It is one of the few virgin beaches in the area, with golden sand and crystal-clear water, perfect for surfing due to the winds that whip it. At the moment there are no hotels on this beach, so there are few tourists.

This public beach is free to access. It has all the services: restaurants, shops, water activities, massages, buggy tours, and catamaran rides, so it is perfect for families. Suppose you are staying at an all-inclusive hotel in Punta Cana. In that case, we recommend a getaway to Playa El Macao to enjoy a virgin beach without any kind of buildings around it.

2. Relax on the Famous Bavaro Beach

Bávaro Beach is one of the most famous beaches on the island and is where most of the all-inclusive resorts in Punta Cana are located. Bavaro’s fine white sand and crystal-clear waters have helped it maintain the exclusivity and elegance that have earned it the title of the best Caribbean beach. UNESCO has declared it one of the best beaches in the world.

The coral reefs, which run directly off the coast, act as natural protection for surfing on Bavaro Beach. There are also many shady coconut palms on this stretch of coast. This is one of the paradises to see in Punta Cana.

3. Swim in Hoyo Azul at Scape Park

Hoyo Azul is a cenote with turquoise waters and 14 meters deep, surrounded by vegetation where swimming is allowed. To get to it, you can go by car until you reach the trails of Scape Park, a nature amusement park where you can also do many other activities. Once there, you will have to do a 1 km trek, cross a hanging bridge, walk through a tropical forest, and go through stairs.

Hoyo Azul is a natural pool formed as a result of the erosion of limestone rocks. Its depth reaches several meters, and it is surrounded by high rocks covered with lush vegetation. The place is ideal for swimming, diving and just relaxing in nature. It is worth at least visiting it during your vacation to Punta Cana!

4. Enjoy the lively nightlife of Punta Cana

One of the most fun things to do and see in Punta Cana is to enjoy its night parties until the early morning hours. The most famous nightclub is the legendary Coco Bongo, which is also located in Cancun. However, if you stay several nights, we recommend you take like a party route through the nightclubs of Punta Cana, where you will thoroughly enjoy the Caribbean night.

Of course, during the day, Punta Cana’s beaches are often the main attraction. However, the real experts get a tan and drink their first cocktails in the sun, and when night falls, they head to the bars and clubs: here, however, you will meet all the tourists in the area. If you want to experience the Dominican night like the locals do, make friends with them and let them guide you. You will certainly not regret it!

5. Take a buggy tour through the jungle

The buggy tour in Punta Cana is an incomparable experience and, without a doubt, the best excursion you can undertake if you are eager to immerse yourself in an exciting adventure that will allow you to explore the paradisiacal landscapes that characterize this amazing region on your trip to the Dominican Republic.
