Caribbean Experiences and Rhythms

Wherever you find yourself, you'll be greeted by joyful people and lively Latin dance music from the beaches, bars, and shops, making it hard not to get swept away. On the dance floors, it's all about bachata and merengue, featuring lots of hip-swaying. Locals are happy to invite tourists to learn these dances, which have both Spanish and African influences. After an energetic dance session, you can always cool down with a tropical cocktail like a piña colada or another tasty rum drink, as rum is a Caribbean specialty.

The Dominican cuisine features plenty of fresh fruits such as pineapple, coconuts, and mango. Make sure to try sugarcane, a popular sweet treat. The national dish consists of rice, beans, chicken, and salad, frequently enjoyed by locals throughout the day. Seek out local restaurants where you can have a hearty meal for a reasonable price, as typical tourist restaurants tend to be a bit more expensive. There are many souvenir shops to find something nice to take home, and don't forget to bargain. A handy tip for getting around is to rent a car or take a minibus instead of a taxi, as many locals don't have a driver's license and may drive less reliably. The capital, Santo Domingo, is worth visiting with its beautiful architecture, restaurants, and the rum museum where you can sample and learn about the history of rum. For a more adventurous activity, take an excursion to Paradise Island by speedboat to the small island of Cayo Paraiso.
