More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
The morning light over Samara Beach hits the ocean with a brisk, salt-scented edge as you fire up a side-by-side and roll away from town. Dust rises behind you while the coastline peeks through gaps in the trees; the trail climbs, the machine hums, and the beach becomes a ribbon below. After winding up toward Santo Domingo’s ridgelines you stop for fresh tropical fruit and a view that stretches from the agricultural valleys to the Pacific.
