Samana Peninsula
Jutting out into the Atlantic like a finger is the beautiful
Samana Peninsula to the east of the island, a remote area with
deserted white sand beaches, palm forests and clear, calm waters.
Hidden towns and fishing villages, brightly painted Dominican homes
and a Mediterranean-influenced atmosphere characterise the
communities here. Dominating the interior are mountain passes
negotiated by winding roads that offer magnificent views, lush
vegetation and cool waterfalls. The Samana Peninsula is also known
for the migration of Humpback whales between January and March
every year to the sheltered warm waters along its coast.
