Just an hour from Punta Cana, this is one of the most beautiful beaches in the Dominican Republic. A pristine beach, free of people, resorts, and hotels; a peaceful haven where you can relax. The water is crystal clear and the beach is enormous. The further to the right you go, the more beautiful the sea becomes. You'll have to walk a bit on the beach for the best view, but it's worth it! Therefore, we recommend bringing a hat, sunglasses, and plenty of sunscreen because there are no shaded spots. Bring a plastic bag to collect your trash and throw it in the parking lot/bathroom bins. A truly spectacular place, 10/10!!
