We all need a break from time to time, a free time to be able to dedicate time, to do what we like the most. And what better than to do it in the Caribbean? Beaches with crystal clear water, coconut palms whose leaves move in the breeze, a warm and mild climate that invites you to relax ... What more could you want?
However, in the Caribbean there are many places to have a great time, so sometimes it is not easy to decide. To make your task easier, we are going to tell you which are the best beaches in Santo Domingo, in the Dominican Republic.
But first, I must confess something to you: choosing the best Dominican beaches is a task that takes time. Why? Because they all have the perfect ingredients to make you spend an unforgettable vacation. Some we have already mentioned (climate, crystal clear waters ...), but there is much, much more that you are going to discover when you are going to spend some day in one.
Despite everything, I think that more or less has been achieved, and we can provide you with our selection:
El Macao Beach
If you have ever dreamed of a tropical beach, and surely you have, then El Macao beach will make you think that you are in one of those dreams. It is the typical landscape that more than once has 'crept' through our mind. It has fine white sand and is surrounded by coconut trees. It is so spectacular that even UNESCO has declared it one of the best beaches in the Caribbean Sea. Without a doubt, a place that you cannot miss ... and enjoy.
Boca Chica
This beach is located in the Andrés de Boca Chica town. It is one of the most popular destinations because you can enjoy the sun, the soft white sand and the warm blue Caribbean Sea. The beach is protected by a coral reef, so this way you will not have problems with the waves when swimming. Do not miss the opportunity to practice some snorkeling. It will surely fascinate you.
Bayahib Beach
Would you like to spend a night at the beach? Then do not hesitate: go to the Bayahibe. During the day, you can swim in its turquoise blue water, and savor the food and drinks that are served to you; at night you will only have to rent a cabin to contemplate one of the greatest night shows: the starry sky, while you hear the sound of the waves breaking. You will find it about 20km east of La Romana.
San Rafael Beach
This is a beach a little different from the ones we have seen so far, because unlike the others, it has thick sand and is surrounded by mountains of the Bahorouco mountain range. It is located in the province of Barahona, about 20km south of this city. It is the most suitable if you do not want to spend so much heat, then a river of very cold water flows from the mountains where, of course, you can bathe. Of course, be careful if the wind blows as large waves will form. Regardless, the landscape is amazing, and very, very peaceful.
Caleton Beach
For many it is better known by the name of »La Playita». It's just wonderful, well is near the mangroves from Gri Gri lagoon, southeast of Sosúa. It is very crowded, but well worth going, and coming back. And coming back again  .

To the north of the Sierra de Samaná you will find this beautiful cream-colored sand beach. It is located west of Las Terrenas. It is perfect for practicing water sports, or to spend the day with the family.
Juan Dolio Beach
This incredible beach offers a long stretch of sand and coral. It's great for enjoying the sun while playing volleyball or beach soccer. In addition, you will find a very lively nightlife if you are one of those who wants to stay late.
Guayacanes Beach
Es very little frequented. For this reason, it is one of the most ideal places to spend an unforgettable day with the family. Its waters are calm, and the waves are fine, smooth. It has many palm trees, so if you get sleepy, you can always take a nap under its long leaves.
Caribbean beach
