You have never been to such an exotic nightclub, with such an incredible and exclusive atmosphere. You can find your way in the cave of Marocael and live an unforgettable experience while enjoying the best parties in the Caribbean.

5. Visit the Hoyo Azul cenote

You can't leave the Dominican Republic without seeing the Hoyo Azul cenote. As in other places in Central America, this sacred space is a place of exotic and exuberant beauty that you just can’t miss. Enjoy the views of the underground fresh water, surrounded by immeasurable vegetation. In these mysterious places, religious ceremonies and sacrifices were once made, so they are a part of history.

The Hoyo Azul cenote takes its name from the intense blue colour of its water. This cenote is more than 14 meters deep and is located under a cliff covered in lush green foliage of great beauty. It is a landscape that will leave you speechless, in which you can also bathe and enjoy one of the most exotic experiences of Punta Cana.

6. Go diving

Punta Cana is the ideal place to enter beautiful underwater caves, coral reefs and wrecks, especially the Astron and the Monica reefs, both festooned with tropical plants and fish. Take the opportunity before your holidays are over to go visit some of these beautiful places. There are many diving schools where you can arrange a visit.

7. Visit Los Haitises National Park

If you still have time and don’t have to get up very early for your flight, you can spend Day 6 visiting Los Haitises National Park, in Samaná Bay. It gives you a completely different view of the tourist setting of Punta Cana. There you can discover the famous mogotes, which are small karst elevations about 40 meters high, adorned with beautiful vegetation

To go to Los Haitises, one normally hires a boat, which allows you to travel through the ancient caves of the indigenous Tainos. In Los Haitises Park you will find some caves of great beauty such as La Reyna, La Línea, San Gabriel or La Arena.
