Stingray City

Reviewed By GonzFamilyVaca - Wanaque, United States

I booked this excursion through a cruise line. This was an amazing experience! The boat was clean, not crowded at all. The crew were informative and friendly. They made it possible for us to have enough playtime with the stingrays – fed, pet, and kissed (according to the locals, “it’ll bring 7 years of good luck”), so we made sure of that, lol! They were stingrays swimming around us as we stood at the sandbar, which was about 4 feet deep. Water was crystal clear. Make sure to bring underwater digital camera to capture those memorable photos to share, we sure did! Never felt we were rushed. We had a blast!

Carlisle Bay

This bay is best known for its calm, sheltered waters, perfect for swimming and scuba diving.

Reviewed By Gavinlawrence79

Visited a few times now, the most incredible beach with the most fantastic snorkelling, forget the organised trips and just swim out to see the turtles in their own environment, very little tide to think about and crystal clear water. We were lucky enough to see a Stingray out there too this year, amazing.

Old San Juan

Consisting of 400 restored buildings from the 16th- and 17th-century Spanish colonial period, this area in San Juan is steeped in history with an old-world and romantic European charm.

Reviewed By MaryannL521 - Fair Oaks, United States

Old San Juan is beyond charming. There is so much history here, great architecture, landmarks, cobblestone streets, wonderful food, great museums, El Morro and San Cristobol, beautiful parks and plazas and lovely residential streets. We walked everywhere but also rode the free trolley. There are three trolley lines that will take you almost anywhere in the old city. A good place to begin is to stop at one of the many Tourist Information Centers. We found the one directly across from Pier One to be the most helpful. Here we got a list of museums and their hours as well as a self guided walking tour and directions to take the ferry to Casa Bacardi. Don't miss the San Juan Gate, Fortaleza Street, the cathedral, the San Juan Historic Cemetery and the Paseo de la Princesa. Enjoy!

Seven Mile Beach

Pirates once haunted this seven-mile stretch of golden sand beach, now ruled by pleasure-seeking beach bums and sun-worshipers.

Reviewed By 318delphines

We had a delicious lunch, relax under the shadded Palma tree n enjoyed the beautiful beach n water sports located along the beaches. If you are going to Jamaica you must take a trip to Negri.

The 3 Eyes National Park

A group of interconnected caves near Santo Domingo.

Reviewed By LuizDutraNeto - Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

The "Monumento Natural Cueva Los Tres Ojos", also known as "Parque Nacional Los Tres Ojos", is probably the most visited attraction in Santo Domingo! The caves and lagoons were discovered about a hundred years ago and are really breathtaking! A winding staircase leads visitors to a series of limestone caves. An underground river - "La Brujuela - feeds freshwater to three interconnected lagoons, locally called "eyes" for their eye-oval-shapes. The first one, "Lago de Azufre", is famous for its blue waters (due to the presence of calcium minerals in its composition and not due to sulphurous waters, as initially believed), stalactites and stalagmites. Then comes "Lago La Nevera", named after its cold waters. The third "eye", "Lago Las Damas", the shallowest one, was mostly used by women and children. Years later, a fourth lake was discovered, but unlikely the other "eyes", this one is not underground, but open-air and surrounded by a rocky landscape and lush vegetation. It is called "Lago Los Zaramagullones" after some native ducks, and is the deepest one, with beautiful small fishes swimming on its crystal clear waters. Take your time and visit the park, its caves and lakes. You will never regret! Enjoy!

Lake Enriquillo (Lago Enriquillo)

This rural 13-mile-long lake near the Haiti border is the lowest point in the Caribbean and is a popular tourist attraction for spotting crocodiles.

Reviewed By Thechoosytraveler20 - Toronto, Canada

Lake Enriquillo is a beautiful, hot, and magic spot in the southwest of the Dominican Republic. It is the largest and most hypersaline lake in the Caribbean. The water in the lake can reach hypersaline levels up to 66% higher than sea water. It was previously called Lake Xaragua (Jaragua) after the Taino chiefdom in which it was located. The Lake was formed 10 million years ago when the north island, which was the area toward the Sierra the Neiba’s and the south island, which included Sierra del Bahoruco, le Massif de la Selle, and the Tiburon Peninsula in today Haiti - joined as result of earth movement that formed the Hispaniola island (see photo No. 2). Although arid and harsh, the area is rich in wildlife. Among the fauna: the American flamingos, 61 other species of birds, three species of fishes, and American crocodiles. The Ricord’s and rhinoceros iguana are endemic species. The iguanas are the most welcoming of all the inhabitants in the area. The flora is 10 % endemic and includes cacti, bayahonda, cambrón, guayacán, baitoa, cayucos, melón espinos, and many other species. The journey to the Lake is as exciting as the destination. In our way we cross cities and small towns – San Cristobal, Bani, Azua, Tamayo, Galvan, Neiba, Postrer Rio, Los Rios, Villa Jaragua. During a big part of the trip, the majestic an imposing Sierra del Bahoruco made us company. The physical environment around the Lake is captivating and the sensation of being in a special place is worth the trip.

Eagle Beach

This popular resort beach features the white sand and turquoise waters of an ideal Caribbean beach.

Reviewed By bellerin30 - Schaan, Liechtenstein

We have not found a more perfect beach anywhere in the world. Eagle beach is my happy place. The water is calm and clear and the beach itself is never crowded. There is a tiki bar right on the sand (near Amsterdam Manor) as well and activities (jet skis, parasailing, banana boat rides) for the kids. This what a family holiday should be!

Blue Hole Park

Reviewed By laurenhV8116FV

The first time I went to Bermuda, my mom and I tried finding this place and were extremely sketched out. It was nearing sunset and a couple told us about a "strange man" on the trail, so we ended up leaving and not seeing anything but the first little beach spot. 2 years later, I went back on my honeymoon, and let me tell you - it was SO worth it! Two local kids befriended us, and we had a blast jumping off the cliffs and swimming around. It's a beautiful spot and is so quiet and private. They suggest wearing water shoes, but my feet were fine without them. Also, be sure to check out the little caves all around the park. It's absolutely incredible!
