Was wondering if anyone had any insight into how whale watching has been this year. I've read the typical season lasts until March 15. Planning a trip to Samana the first week of March and am wondering if we should attempt a whale watching excursion. Boat recommendations are welcome as well.
Oh... on a side note, we'll be driving from Bavaro and plan on taking the toll-road I've been hearing about. Thing is, I can't find much about it online. The Maps sites don't seem to show it (or better yet I'm just blind). Googling let me to this article dated Sept 9, 2009 that implies the road hasn't even been built yet. Color me confused. Is that article in reference to a different road?
