What to See and Do in Punta Cana

If you’ve had enough of old man winter and are ready to start planning your fun-in-the-sun 2018 vacation, then consider Punta Cana as the perfect warm-weather destination.
A resort town located in the Dominican Republic, Punta Cana is known for its eight pristine beaches, white or golden yellow sands, as well as its clear waters where you can enjoy scuba diving, snorkeling, kayaking, and paddle surfing.
The adventurer in you can explore Punta Cana on a bavaro runner for an up-close look at the flora and fauna of the area. Or, if you prefer, you can get down and dirty and explore it in a dune buggy.
Perhaps you prefer to see the area from high above while cruising on a zip line?
“Punta Cana has the longest coral reef in the Dominican Republic,” said Greg Antonelle with Let’s Adventure Travel in New Jersey. “Because of that, we highly recommend adventure-loving people register for a zip-line excursion. It's a great bucket list item to check off and offers amazing landscapes as you soar through the rainforest. The views are awe-inspiring and offer an adrenaline rush to thrill-seekers. Safety is paramount at the zip-line locations and the guides are well-versed on making the tourists feel comfortable.”
If you prefer planting your feet on a golf course instead of letting loose on a zip line, Eden Rock at Cap Cana uses the environment to challenge your game, with three Jack Nicklaus signature courses that take you around the beaches, cliffs and waterfalls.
There’s also the famous 13th-hole shot (that requires you to putt over the ocean) as well as the Corales Golf Course, which has been designed around its cliffs, bays, ocean coves and the inland lakes and coralina quarries.
Southwest Vacations can help you to find a great deal on an all-inclusive Punta Cana vacation package, which includes stays at the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino Punta Cana as well as the Grand Palladium Bavaro Suites Resort and Spa.
For families, Renee Tsang of Centre Holiday Travel in Calgery, Alberta, recommends the Nickelodeon Resort in Punta Cana:
“It’s a fun and exciting vacation with all your favorite Nickelodeon characters, including Dora the Explorer, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and of course Sponge Bob Square Pants. Between character breakfasts, dance parties, daily slimings, a large waterpark and lazy river, there is never-ending fun for the kids and the young at heart. The beautiful soft sandy beaches and warm ocean waters in Uvero Alto provide the perfect beach backdrop to the fun and lively resort.”

Sarah Kline, president of Time For Travel, Ltd, just took her three teenagers to Hoya Azul (Blue Hole) inside Scape Park Cap Cana: “It was breathtakingly beautiful with its crystal clear cool water. The facilities were top-notch and the guides very professional.”
A Southwest all-inclusive vacation includes your meals and snacks as well as entertainment, cocktails, beverages and water sports. It's all-inclusive and a worry-free vacation because you won’t get hit with any unexpected expenses.
Isn’t that what a vacation is all about?
