San Francisco Chronicle journalist Margo Pfeiff was in Las Galeras recently and her observations on the low-key Samana peninsula beach town were featured in the news story that can be viewed online. She focuses on the essence of the area’s beauty, its secluded beaches, its international nature, and unpretentious hospitality. She mentions the pleasures of enjoying sweet coconut juice right from the source. She tells of the eco-touristic and adventure travel type activities on offer, but keeps on coming back to the marvel of lazing on the beach.
