Santo Domingo · Beach day · 7 hours
Overview
Swap the city for Boca Chica's reef-protected lagoon — waist-deep, calm water perfect for families. Relax on reserved sun loungers, enjoy a fresh fried-fish lunch on the sand and walk out to the mangrove island of La Matica.
Boca Chica's reef-sheltered bay has calm, shallow turquoise water — the most relaxed swim near Santo Domingo. You get round-trip transport, time to swim and wade to La Matica islet, and a fried-fish lunch on the sand.
Families with children, non-swimmers and anyone wanting a beach day without a long drive. Compare this beach day with other excursions. Fit a beach day into your family trip.
