The most important thing is to visit Saona. Everything else is nonsense. We took it from the locals at the hotel, although it was possible through a travel agency, but they are more expensive

alex. approximate price of a helicopter? I can imagine the view from above! In the Maldives, I flew around 20 islands on a seaplane, I could not believe in the reality of what I saw! In Boca Chica, can you recommend someone for excursions? How about theft in hotels? How secure is the safe?

approximately 200 bucks per person for 30 minutes, but again, prices and duration jump a lot, look on the Internet for information there ...

Is it really as dangerous as they say? I'm just flying without my husband and it's already scary. Does it make sense to go to other beaches in Punta Cana, pay $ 25 for entry to Cap Cana, or can you also swim well in Boca Chica?

I would not advise one ... Personally, the ocean in the hotel was enough for us, and the excursion to Saona added positive emotions from the Caribbean Sea

my opinion is only as a souvenir or a gift to someone. And since coffee is like coffee, for example, in Germany we can buy just as well, and rum is certainly delicious there, but you can’t bring it home with you in a canister ... So are cigars ...

I understand that the weather is identical to the Maldives. Jackets with sleeves are not needed. Is it warm in the evening? What's with the humidity? Are you constantly wet or not? Is it worth taking repellents, are there mosquitoes?

Well, in the summer, I think the Dominican Republic is almost indistinguishable from the Maldives. The Maldives is just closer to the equator and there the temperature drops are quite insignificant.

In the Dominican Republic, do not forget about the seasonality of hurricanes. Approximately from August to October annually.

Can you throw a couple of practical tips, I practically did not prepare. I studied Bali, but it turned out that I got a good price for the Dominican Republic.

to see whales, you need to visit in February-March (according to the guide)
And Saona is more like the Maldives.

We did not buy adapters for sockets, our two plug sockets can be inserted without problems, everything functioned, it only took 2 times longer to charge.

Yes, the season there starts from November and lasts until March inclusive. Therefore, as it was correctly suggested above, you most likely will not have problems with the weather.
