Your trip to La Romana, Dominican Republic will become an incomparable experience, not only because of the many activities you can enjoy, but also because of its rich history and breathtaking views. You'll be able to explore ancient ruins as well as contemporary art while living an adventurous life, whether it's diving or hiking through lush forest landscapes with healing waters at every turn!
La Romana, which means "the Roman scale" in Spanish, takes its name from an old family of Italian origin that weighed the goods passing through the port. The main reason for the strong economic development of this region is tourism, largely due to its attractions and infrastructure, which make it a popular destination. Places like Casa de Campo, Altos de Chavón, Bayahibe or the Este National Park are worth seeing.
Bayahibe is a hidden gem of the Caribbean, only 16 kilometers east of La Romana. Visitors can discover its pristine sandy beaches and three shipwrecks: the Atlantic Princess, the St. George and finally the Coco, where the ship's anchor has been resting since 1848 after it ran aground while carrying passengers from Kingston to San Juanico Harbor.
