Light rainOne of the most iconic beaches in Punta Cana, known for its turquoise waters protected by coral reefs and its unparalleled sunsets.
The official language in the Dominican Republic is Spanish. However, in Punta Cana, thanks to its tourism-driven character, English is widely spoken in hotels, restaurants and shops, making it easier for international visitors to communicate.
The official currency is the Dominican peso (DOP). In tourist areas of Punta Cana, US dollars (USD) are widely accepted in hotels, restaurants and shops. That said, for local purchases and services outside the resorts, it is advisable to have Dominican pesos on hand to secure better exchange rates and simplify transactions. Euros (EUR) can also be exchanged at banks, bureaux de change and the airport. ATMs are available in most tourist areas and credit cards are widely accepted.
Punta Cana enjoys a tropical climate with warm temperatures throughout the year, generally between 25°C and 30°C. The dry season, from December to April, is the ideal time to visit due to the lower probability of rain. The rainy season runs from May to November, although rainfall is usually brief and does not usually significantly affect tourist activities.
To enter Punta Cana, most tourists only need a valid passport. Citizens of the United States, Canada, the European Union and certain other countries do not require a visa for stays of up to 30 days. In addition, all travellers must complete the digital entry and exit form, known as the e-Ticket, before arriving. Be sure to check the specific requirements for your nationality before travelling.
In Punta Cana, the most common transportation options for tourists are private or shared transfers organised by hotels or travel agencies. Taxis are also available, though it’s recommended to agree on the fare before starting your journey. If you’d like to explore beyond the resorts, car rental services and some tourist buses connect the region’s main attractions.
A week-long stay is ideal for enjoying the beaches, taking part in water activities, going on excursions to nearby locations and relaxing at the resorts. This duration allows for a balance between relaxation and exploring Punta Cana’s attractions.
Punta Cana is generally safe for tourists. However, it’s important to take standard precautions, such as hiding valuables, using authorised transportation and staying informed about local safety recommendations. Staying in well-located, reputable hotels also contributes to a safer and more enjoyable experience.
No specific vaccinations are required to enter the Dominican Republic. However, it’s advisable to be up to date on routine vaccinations, such as tetanus and hepatitis A and B. If you plan to visit rural areas or engage in outdoor activities, consulting a healthcare professional before your trip is recommended.
