In the late 60s, a group of American investors set their sights on a beautiful jungle area located at the far end of the Dominican Republic. Previously called Yauya or Punta Borrachón, this area of the island has dense and impenetrable trees finished in beautiful beaches of white sand.
One of the advantages of having your wedding in a destination like Punta Cana is after the big party, you also have an infinity of activities and places you can visit. In this heavenly place you can find from incredible white sand beaches to tropical forests with beautiful lagoons.
Here are some recommendations of spectacular places for you and your guests to spend an incredible vacation.
#1 Saona Island
One of the most popular activities in Punta Cana is Saona Island, one of the largest in Dominican Republic. This enigmatic island has beautiful beaches, jungle, mangroves and town inhabited by fishermen. You can get there on a large catamaran or in small boats, all these boats arrive at the same beach where you can find restaurants and swim with your family and friends. However, if you like adventure, we recommend going into the jungle and looking for uninhabited areas. You will love the flora and fauna that this beautiful island offers you!
#2 Los Haitises National Park
This is one of the most beautiful excursions to do in Punta Cana. Located in the bay of Samaná, this place has the appearance that Punta Cana had before its tourist transformation. One of the peculiarities of this place are its "mogotes", which are small elevations of 30 or 40 meters high that have been formed by the nature of the soil. Most of the excursions include an exploration of its mangroves by boat and to visit the ancient caves inhabited by the Tainos. It's a unique experience that you can not miss!
#3 Santo Domingo
Of course you cannot miss a visit to this extraordinary city! Being the first European colonial city in America, Santo Domingo is a 3 hour drive from Punta Cana. Its colonial appeal will leave you and your guests enchanted. Here you will find the "first" of everything; the first house where Columbus lived, the first cathedral and the first hospital built by the Spanish people. If you like history, this is a stop that you cannot miss on your honeymoon.
#4 Adventure activities
Do you like adventure and extreme activities? It would be a big mistake to be in Punta Cana and not enjoy all the activities it offers. You can go buggy through the jungle, quad or horseback the beaches, or fly in a zip line over the Caribbean jungle. You can also opt for parasailing and fly over the beautiful beaches, speedboats and some surf courses. Take advantage of these vacations and live all these magical adventures!
#5 Diving
The waters of the Dominican Republic offer a large number of places for diving. Coral areas, large underwater caves and shipwrecks. Some of the best diving spots near Punta Cana are:
- La Cueva: A shallow dive that takes you through a beautiful circuit of caves among some sharks (harmless!) and stingrays.
- Monica: this ship sunk off the coast of Punta Cana 90 years ago due to a storm. The wooden hull ship has a material interior for railway tracks, machinery and many fish of all kinds.
Punta Cana, in addition to being an excellent wedding destination option, is also an excellent place to spend an incredible vacation!
