I am coming back to the DR next week with a one way ticket and alot of time. I have been there a few times but want to see parts that I have not yet visited.I am landing in SDQ and staying a few days in the colonial zone. I plan on seeing Los Tres Ojos ,botanical Gardens,El Faro Colon, Plaza Espana. Eat on the malecon and have a few beers. I also am planning to see a baseball game ,if tickets are available. Can you buy them at the stadium?
From there I am going to Boca Chica for 1 night to find an old friend. After that the adventure begins.I plan on going back to the airport to rent a car and drive the south coast to Punta Cana. Everyone I know here in upstate New York that goes to the DR ,goes to Punta Cana.I would like to see it once. after that I am not sure where to go. I wanted to see Isla Sanoa ,altos de Chavon, so i would stay in Bayahibe or La Romana.Then on to Punta Cana.
I am going to Las Terranenas,Las Galeras, Samana. I have been there 3 or 4 times.Is it worth it to drive from Punta Cana up the coast to sabana Del Mar?It seems like you have to drive all the way back to Hato Mayor to catch the highway up towards Sanchez. 4 hours of probably not good driving. Can you go through El puerto and Bayaguana to get to the highway?Is it worth it to continue north to Miches and Sabana del Mar?
After that i am pretty familiar with what to do and where to go. I am staying for 3 weeks in puerto plata area.
I guedss the big question was driving from Boca chica to punta Cana then north to miches then back south to go north again. Is it worth it to go north of Punta Cana?Can you drive through Los Haitises from las canas to sanchez?
I am going to see some nice beaches up north. Is Isla Sanoa worth it?Am I missing any good attactions?
Thank you for your help.
