Playa Dorada Things To Do
Beaches
Playa Dorada beaches are a breathtaking sight and obviously one of the top attractions for visiting tourists. The Dominican Republic boasts around 800 miles of pristine white sands and warm waters, yet amazingly you will be hard pressed to find two beaches in Playa Dorada that look exactly the same. There are beaches to suit everyone in Playa Dorada, from small secluded bays allowing you to while away time by yourself to expansive stretches of sand with a multitude of popular activities and exciting things to do.
Water sports
The world famous beaches provide plenty of fun things to do in Playa Dorada. There are a number of water sports available for the more active tourists including snorkelling, scuba diving, and windsurfing. Several Playa Dorada beaches also have some stunning coral reef formations with a spectacular array of marine life just waiting to be explored on scuba diving excursions.
Casinos
The Dominican Republic is no match for Las Vegas, yet one of its more appealing attractions is its large collection of casinos. Gaming is legalised in the Dominican Republic and the majority of the resorts hotels are equipped with casinos. There are approximately 31 gambling facilities on the island, so you are sure to find some exciting, yet hopefully not too expensive times in the Playa Dorada!
