Not everything worth seeing in the Dominican Republic is located in the coastal regions. In fact, if you’re looking for a unique experience and quiet way of life, you might find that Dominican Republic homes for sale in the interior are more your style. As this tourism video highlights, there is just as much beauty once you reach the peaks of the Central Range.

Constanza is a popular destination for its scientific reserve, national parklands, and the land for sale that you can find here. You’ll also find unique archaeological features that tell the story of the cultures that lived here long before European explorers ever set foot in the country.

One reason so many people turn their one-time visit to the Dominican Republic into a permanent change of address is the food. The fine dining options in the major cities run the range of local dishes to European cuisine—and you’ll even find a few incredible sushi restaurants, as well. This brief video highlights La Residence, which provides a French fusion meal in a romantic, intimate setting the Dominican Republic is known for.

These kinds of Dominican Republic restaurants — which cater to both tourists and the upscale expat communities here—are exactly what life in the Dominican Republic is all about. You can enjoy the bold flavors of the DR, but with the comforts and elegance you’re accustomed to at home.

The Bachata: Exploring Dominican Republic Traditions

If you spend any time on the streets or in the nightclubs of the Dominican Republic, you’ll catch a first-hand glimpse of just how important dancing is to the culture here. There’s something about the tropical air and saucy beats of the native music that get your hips swaying—regardless of whether you’re a Dominican Republican by blood or by choice.

In this video from Watch Mojo, you can take a quick lesson in the Bachata, a native Dominican Republic dance that is similar to the Salsa but much easier for beginners. The number one rule of any DR dance is to not be shy, so the more you practice, the more fun you’ll have once you finally hit the warm, sunny streets!

The Dominican Republic has long been a destination for families from around the world. Although the tropical setting and fine dining options make the Dominican Republic a favorite vacation spot for adults, it’s also home to many international, expat communities searching for a warm, welcoming place to raise a family.

That’s why so many activities here cater to a younger crowd. In this video from Dolphin Explorer, you can see for yourself why the natural flora and fauna are great for kids interested in the sciences. You can spend the weekend swimming with the dolphins and taking a boat out to a colorful coral reef at Ocean World only to return home for a quiet (or not so quiet) evening with friends.

You’re not going to encounter any dinosaurs while you’re in the Dominican Republic, and despite the rumors, Jurassic Park wasn’t filmed here… but you can certainly see why the myth might persist.

The South Coast of the Dominican Republic is a favorite destination among those who want to enjoy the tropics and DR setting but without the heavily resort-centered areas of the north. Bayahibe is known for its golf courses and beaches…and if you’re up for a small boat ride, you can end up on Saona Island, a government protected nature reserve with some of the best beaches and wildlife watching opportunities in the country.
