La Caleta
Entering from the Las Américas
International Airport JFPG, making a
right turn, you find La Caleta Park and
Museum that exhibit an indigenous
cemetery in its original location, and a
sample of pre-Hispanic ceramic figures.
There is no admission charge.
The most beautiful sunsets can be seen
from this small fishermen’s port. Many
artists set up their easels here trying to
capture on their canvas the rich colors
offered by the crepuscular skies.
From here to Punta Cana and Bávaro,
located on the eastern tip of the island,
you find the most beautiful white sand
and crystalline water beaches. According
to a study of this region carried out by
UNESCO experts, these beaches “should
be included among the best in the
world.”
The natural resources, the agreable
climate, the few rainy days, and the
Dominican’s innate hospitality have
sustained tourist growth that make the
eastern region a privileged destination for
vacationers in the Caribbean. At present
there are more than 13,200 hotel rooms
designed to operate under the EP, MAP,
FAP or the all-inclusive regimen, in the
interest of offering an unbeatable qualityprice
ratio.
There are three international airports
located in the region: Las Américas JFPG
in Santo Domingo, Punta Aguila in La
Romana, and Punta Cana in Higüey, all
with daily scheduled direct flights from
the world’s major cities.

Boca Chica
Your next stop is Boca Chica, only
five minutes from the Las Américas
International Airport JFPG, and the ideal
place for resting, sunbathing, swimming,
and walking along one of the east coast’s
most beautiful beaches. Shallow waters
and incredibly fine white sand make it a
favorite spot of capital city’s residents.
Near the town, that is gradually
organizing itself to receive tourism, you
can find magnificent hotel rooms in the
vacation complex Oasis Hamaca Beach
Hotel and Casino, and other smaller ones
such as Villas Sans Soucy, which offer
very good service.
There are also good restaurants with
specialties in German, Canadian, French,
Italian, Creole, and international cuisine,
offering you the personal attention of their
owners, most of whom are foreigners
who have made this area their home.
