The two-mile beach, protected by coral reefs, is considered to be the best and safest in the world for windsurfing. A lagoon where visitors enjoy rowing and bird watching is also an attraction of the area. The half mile strip that comprises the town is flanked by restaurants, food and convenience stores, gift shops and lodgings. There are also exiting waterways and caves to explore. A relaxed atmosphere permeates both the northern and southern coasts of this quiet peninsula of 15 miles of completely unspoiled white sand beaches lined with coconut palms, shallow waters.
Hotels have all the conveniences and water sports facilities associated to the Amber Coast.
In the middle of the Bay is Cayo Levantado, a small island which seems to be floating in the air over the aquamarine sea, featuring three splendid beaches of exceptionally fine sand and a small hotel. The number, size and location of resort hotels has been carefully controlled to preserve the natural beauty of this place located at the eastern end of Dominican Republic. Each resort is a complete, virtually self-contained world within which every possible amenity is available. Punta Cana's all-inclusive resorts offer total packages including most sports, meals and nightly stage shows. Some of these resorts are casual and socially stimulating, with the staff ready to teach you sailing, scuba or merengue dancing.
