The engine vibrates underfoot as the trail narrows between leaning coconut palms; salt and green earth mix in the air and the ocean’s line shimmers through breaks in the canopy. In a small-group 4x4 ATV tour from Punta Cana you move fast enough to feel alive but slow enough to notice: crushed shell under tires, a heron folding into the mangroves, the sudden expanse of a wild beach with no hotels in sight.
