A quieter side of the Dominican Republic.

Bayahibe is a small fishing village in La Altagracia province on the southeastern coast of the Dominican Republic. It sits next to the Cotubanamá National Park — home to Saona and Catalina islands, two of the Caribbean's most photographed beaches.

Unlike the resort sprawl of Punta Cana, Bayahibe stays walkable, calm and authentically Dominican. The marina, the local restaurants and the captains are all within a short stroll of each other.

It's a 1h 15min drive from Punta Cana, 10min from La Romana cruise port and just minutes from the Dominicus all-inclusive resorts.
