So, this is my third post asking for advice. SORRY! I'm so wishy washy. Sorry for bothering the board so many times. Anyway, here's my situation.
The main purpose of my trip is to see my friend in SD and combine seeing her with a trip outside SD. She is a lady friend who I have a romantic relationship. I've been to the DR a number of times, but not very many places. But first, a little background info... I'm 62, not in the best physical shape but am up for and capable of rafting and other activities, can only take lying on the beach for about one hour max, budget for hotels is about $100/day. I am not renting a car and will be using public transportation, be it a bus or private car. Originally, I was set on going to Jarabacoa, but I then I thought I'd get bored after a few days. That's pretty much it.
So, I've gone back and forth and forth and back between Jarabacoa, the Samana peninsula and Barahona. I can see visiting a few places but I don't want to spend an inordinate amount of time traveling. Each of these areas seems to have pluses and minuses. Or maybe there's an area I'm not considering.
So, taking all this minutiae into account, can someone make a recommendation? Thanks, and again my apologies for all the posts.
