A partir de $135Nature near Cabrera
The hills above Cabrera hide caves with bird colonies, river pools and small waterfalls that rarely appear in guidebooks. Coffee farms welcome visitors to see how Dominican beans are grown and roasted, and the mangrove channels along the coast are home to herons and the occasional manatee. A local guide makes the difference, since many of these spots sit on farm tracks.
What to bring
Closed shoes for the trails, insect repellent and water are essentials. Mornings are cooler and better for wildlife. Guided nature tours from Puerto Plata bundle transport, a guide and entry fees so you can cover several sites in one day.
