Know more about traveling from Punta Cana Airport

Punta Cana's resort zone is generally considered safe for visitors, and most travelers have trouble-free stays. Petty theft and card skimming can occur, so keep valuables secure and use ATMs inside banks or hotels. It is advisable to stay in well-lit, busy areas at night if venturing beyond your resort, and to use reputable, pre-arranged transportation.

Punta Cana is very family-friendly. Most all-inclusive resorts have dedicated kids' clubs, shallow pool areas, and child-appropriate entertainment. The calm, shallow waters along many of the beaches are ideal for younger swimmers. Strollers work well within resorts but can be harder to manage on sandy beach paths and some outdoor excursion sites.

Beyond the beach, highlights include Hoyo Azul (a stunning natural cenote), Saona Island, the Indigenous Eyes Ecological Park, and Scape Park. Coffee and cocoa plantation tours offer a taste of local culture. Those looking to explore further can make a day trip to the colonial city of Santo Domingo, a UNESCO World Heritage site.

The official currency is the Dominican peso (DOP). However, U.S. dollars are widely accepted throughout Punta Cana, especially at resorts, shops, and for excursions. It is best to exchange money at banks or official exchange offices rather than at the airport, where rates are less favorable. Keep small bills handy for tips and local purchases.

Tipping is customary and appreciated throughout the Dominican Republic. Restaurant bills typically include an 18% tax and a 10% service charge, but an additional cash tip goes directly to your server and is always welcomed. Tip housekeeping, drivers, and excursion staff directly in cash. U.S. dollars are widely accepted for tipping at resorts.

Spanish is the official language. In Punta Cana's resort areas, English is widely spoken by hotel staff and those working in the tourism industry. Knowing a few basic Spanish phrases will be appreciated, especially if you venture beyond resort areas. French, German, and Italian are also spoken at many international resorts.

Dominican cuisine is a flavorful mix of Spanish, African, and indigenous Taino influences. Must-try dishes include la bandera (rice, beans, and meat), sancocho (a rich meat stew), mangu (mashed plantains), and fresh seafood. Look for local rum and tropical fruit juices. Presidente beer is the national brew and a staple at beach bars across the region.

Punta Cana enjoys warm, sunny weather year-round. The peak season runs from December through April, when skies are reliably clear and conditions are ideal for the beach. The shoulder months of May through July are quieter and still pleasant. Be aware that the Atlantic hurricane season runs from June through November, with September being the most active month.
