Dominican Republic is the most popular destination for Caribbean travelers and it's easy to understand why. The Dominican Republic-- which takes up two-thirds of the island of Hispaniola-- has all the makings of an exotic tropical paradise...

Stunning beaches with soft white sand and spectacularly azure waters. The sand and sea meet, lacing fingers, becoming intertwined blue and white ribbons growing thin as they stretch into the horizon, interrupted only with swaying coconut palms that fringe the sand. Plunge into the inviting waters and head offshore and you'll find extraordinary scuba diving and snorkeling sites... where you can pry into the secret world of the sea.

The Dominican Republic is a country rich with legacy. Stroll the narrow streets of Santo Domingo's Colonial Zone and step through hundreds upon hundreds of years of colonial history. The oldest settlement in the Americas, the Dominican Republic presents fascinating relics of the past-- Fort San Felipe, the first fort in the New World; the Catedral de Santa Maria la Menor, the first cathedral of the New World; Alcazar de Colon, the palatial dwellings of Don Diego Colon, visited by the likes of Ponce de Leon.

The Dominican Republic is sprinkled with many excellent golf courses. La Romana's Casa de Campo was named the number one golf resort in the Caribbean by Golf magazine. If you're a golf lover, you must come to the Dominican Republic and see why.

If you're looking for nightlife, you've found your spot-- imagine packed nightclubs pulsing with the rhythms of merengue, glittery casinos with all your favorite Vegas game and thrilling Cabaret shows.

There's more. Come see why for yourself why this lush, mountainous island is so special. Taste the comida criolla, enjoy unique shopping in bustling markets, see the highest peak in the Caribbean. Dance the night away. Explore tropical rain forests and gorgeous beaches. Lock eyes with tropical fish that call the coral reefs home. Enjoy the vacation of a lifetime.
