Tominator Posted March 6, 2015 Report Share Posted March 6, 2015 Take sunscreen. You'd be surprised how quickly you burn at those latitudes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RangerClay Posted March 6, 2015 Report Share Posted March 6, 2015 Stay away from the island girls or you will wind up with a severe case of punta crabs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RangerClay Posted March 6, 2015 Report Share Posted March 6, 2015 I just google mapped the place. I hope you are bringing your golf clubs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rhino Posted March 6, 2015 Report Share Posted March 6, 2015 Yep...lots of sunscreen. I would certainly take in some golf with the options you have there. According to trip advisor (link below) you've got 88 options of things to pick and choose from. Just about whatever suits your fancy. http://www.tripadvisor.com/Attractions-g147293-Activities-Punta_Cana_La_Altagracia_Province_Dominican_Republic.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maine Hntr Posted March 7, 2015 Report Share Posted March 7, 2015 I'm going there in April to the hard rock, been once before about 10 years ago. Still my favorite vacation destination, I would say stay on the resort if you can, we did a 4 wheeler your and stuff but they advised to stay on the resorts.. I think it's changed a lot since the first time I was there though, it's much more of a vacation destination now than it was then so I think the locals are used to it and are welcoming. Have fun.

Muff Posted March 7, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2015 Thanks for the tips guys.....the only thing we may do off the resort is swim with the dolphins. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strut10 Posted March 7, 2015 Report Share Posted March 7, 2015 SUNSCREEN !!!! Yep. Does not take long at all between about 10:00 and 3:00 to turn a Pennsylvania white boy into a peeling, leather beet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wtnhunt Posted March 8, 2015 Report Share Posted March 8, 2015 Never been. Sounds like a great time. Have a safe trip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCH Posted March 11, 2015 Report Share Posted March 11, 2015 I was in Punta Cana two years ago this month. Loved every minute of it. We stayed at the Iberostar Grand Bavarro. Beautiful place! All inclusive trip so I did not go thirsty! If you get a chance to take some tours, I highly recommend the Bavarro runners. We had a blast driving around the countryside, touring tobacco and cocoa farms and horsback riding near old castles. We're actually leaving at the end of this month going to Costa Rica. Really looking forward to another getaway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaun_300 Posted March 12, 2015 Report Share Posted March 12, 2015 Have a great time Joe! Never been that far south myself but I agree with the others on the sunscreen part. You don't want to come back to Canada as a lobster lol. My parents are flying out to Jamaica tomorrow morning for their 30th anniversary trip. I'm jealous!

NS whitetail Posted April 7, 2015 Report Share Posted April 7, 2015 I've been to Mexico twice, Florida five times, Bermuda, Bahamas, Cuba and the Barbados but never to Punta Canta, my wife has and lots of friends and they say it's nice there .................... my advice is , lots of sunscreen for sure and keep your eyes open at all times, don't let your guard down.

Ravin R10 man Posted April 7, 2015 Report Share Posted April 7, 2015 (edited) My idea of vacation is to be where people aint...I can see myself heading north sooner than south... I always said, if I won the lotto, I'd buy me a fishing lodge, or an island on LOTW Edited April 7, 2015 by Mathews XT Man Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
