Family Activities in the Dominican Republic

Wednesday, April 4th, 2012

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. While you watch this brief video clip by a graphic design artist working in 3D, it’s possible to imagine yourself walking in a world untouched by time.

This setting is why so many people choose Dominican Republic vacations and homes for sale in Jarabacoa. Although not on the water, this semi-mountainous terrain is still part of the tropics, boasting the same blue skies, jungle-like plant life, and incredible views you’ll find everywhere on the island.

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.
