What activities do you recommend in Punta Cana for a mom (49) and son (17)? We'll be there from 4/12-4/19.

Question

Son very active, mother somewhat less, but still adventurous (have been snorkeling in USVI and zip lining in Costa Rica). Thinking about parasailing, or maybe small speed boats. Best locations? Or other suggestions? Thanks !!!

Answer 1

Hi !,

You can do para sailing, and you must visit Saona Island this simply fantastic, you can go on Safari (with the Monster Trucks) If you like you can visit Alto de Chavon (near La Romana and close to Casa de Campo) there are many things to do. But if you buy the tours, first check out the prices! In the hotels and with tour operators they are more expensive so look well before buying. Other thing, take some us currency with you (airport) and later you can always redraw from a cashier so never change money on the street! and never at the hotel (bad rate).

Happy to help you!

Happy Feet

There's so much stuff do do in DR! you can find great historical sites and very cool resorts there is also alot of chances to rent a boat and just sail all around the shore! my personal favorite is going to La Saona. it's a small island of the coast and they take large groups and just chill for a day! the locals are so nice, but still be aware of your stuff becuase some terrible people take advantage of tourists who dont know much about where thay are.
