Bayahibe Beach is another popular beach but more low-key and relaxed than La Minitas Beach. Wildlife preserves are close by and it is much more secluded and undeveloped than La Minitas. This beach is also close to Casa de Camp listed above.

Another great beach in this area is Dominicus Beach. A great spot for Dominican Republic beach resorts.

This resort is an award-winner and gets some of the best reviews in the DR. It is on the larger side, luxurious and in the Bayahibe Beach area. It is closest to Dominicus Beach.
