Enjoy The Rum In The Blistering Sun

For a fun-filled holiday to remember forever, head for the superb and sublime Dominican Republic. With staggering coastlines lined with swaying palms and lush jungle terrain, the Dominican Republic has something to offer everyone, be it fun-filled celebrations with your friends, family holidays with the energetic kids or enchanting quiet breaks with your loved one.

The north and the south are equally as nice, however the north has took some stick over the years, as snobbish travellers and those who 'know it all' have branded it as the poor mans side of the island, saying it has dark beaches and is nowhere near as nice as the south.

If you're thinking of travelling to the north on your holidays to the Dominican Republic, don't let these opinionated, pompous visitors put a dampener on your holiday, Although its beaches aren't quite white, they're soft, golden and stretch for miles, as well serve their purpose to a tee!

You can walk along these soft, shimmering sands, splash through the waters edge and as far as the eye can see. You'll come across locals living their day to day lives and can buy a freshly cut coconut to cool yourself on your way.

Take a dip in the lovely cooling waters where you'll be accompanied by complacent fish swimming their daily journey. Grab your snorkel and follow in their mist as you slowly float along the shore. If you prefer being above water, you'll love the extensive range of watersports on offer at most major hotels.

You'll never be bored of something to do here, whether it's watching the days go by on the sun soaked beaches, relaxing by the pool or swilling your afternoons away in the swim up bar. If you're looking for something a little more intense, book yourself onto one of many trips available, whether it's swimming with the dolphins, the outback safari or paradise island, you won't be disappointed with any of the excursions on offer here, as each of them offers their own unique and amazing qualities.

The Dominican Republic is the ideal destination for a long-haul, sun-filled, Caribbean style holiday, without having to break the bank in getting there. So for a last minute break away, book your summer holidays to the Dominican Republic to play and have fun, laze in the sun and savour the taste of the good old rum!
