Activities: Fun in the Sun

Unlike those tiny Caribbean islands where you can see and do everything in a single afternoon, the Dominican Republic is a rather big island ~ the size of Massachusetts, Connecticut, and Rhode Island combined. It's about five times bigger than Jamaica. It's safe to say you could take years experiencing and exploring everything The Republica Dominicana has to offer.

Activities that are a reasonable distance from Sunrise villa:

• Championship golf
• Horseback riding (mountains or beach)
• Scuba diving
• Snorkeling
• Sport Fishing
• Deep sea and surf fishing
• Hiking (National Park or mountains)
• Whale watching (in season)
• Caving and cave diving
• River boating
• Windsurfing (Cabarete, only 45 minutes away, is the windsurfing capital of the America's)
• Mountain biking
• Water sliding at the waterpark
• Cable car riding
• Yacht charters

Venturing further afield, consider these options:

• Mountain climbing
• Whitewater rafting
• Explore a 400 year-old Spanish fort
• Play more championship golf courses
• Discover waterfalls and cascades where you can walk or swim down the mountain. (These make Dunn's river falls in Jamaica seem tame and small.)
• Visit the famous rum or cigar factories.
• There are several nice restaurants in the area, a small casino, and a local disco where you can shake your booty all night long. (Contrary to what you hear in the States, dancing, not baseball, is the true Dominican passion!)
