9a ATV Tour Las Galeras and Playa Rincon
Starting point of the tour is Santa Barbara de Samana. From here we drive along the bay of Samana in the direction of Las Galeras. On the way we make a short detour through the small fishing village Los Cacaos and visit at La Frances a cliff coast from which one has a wonderful view up to the Cabo de Samana. From here, the drive continues to a view point in a holiday resort, with a great view over the whole bay of Samana. Then we continue to Las Galeras.
Arrived in Las Galeras we first head for Playa Grande, the house beach of Las Galeras, where the main road also ends. With a view to Isla Isleta, a small offshore island, we drive along Playa Grande and make a detour to Playa Paraiso. From here we continue to the paradisiacal beach La Playita, which offers a view over the bay up to Cabo Cabron. On the way we cross small residential areas, where we get an impression of how the people live here.
Now we continue through small villages to Playa Rincon, one of the 10 most beautiful beaches in the world. On the way we make a short stop and visit a shop where you can taste typical fruit and buy souvenirs. Arriving at Playa Rincon, we first drive to a very remote beach section, where you have a paradisiacal dream scenery all to yourself. Afterwards we drive along the almost 3 kilometres long sandy beach to the other end of Playa Rincon. There we explore the small river (Cano Frio), which offers an impressive photo motive with the mangroves and its breathtaking colours. Finally, we go to the mouth of the river, where a small lagoon invites to a refreshing bath in the crystal clear river water. Alternatively you can swim in the sea of Playa Rincon. A cosy, Dominican fish restaurant also offers the opportunity to satisfy your hunger or thirst.
The way back to Santa Barbara then goes over a gravel road through the Campo, past waving children, with a great view over the landscape to Las Galeras and the sea. Afterwards we make a short detour through the small village of El Frances.

9b ATV Excursion Las Terrenas & Playas El Limon
Starting point of the tour is Santa Barbara de Samana. From the Malecon (port road) in Samana we start with a view of the bay of Samana in the direction of Las Terrenas. Afterwards the journey continues to Rancho Espanol, where there is the possibility to visit a cigar factory. From here the journey continues through the Campo (hinterland), through almost untouched nature, where you get a very good impression of how people live here in the countryside.
Having arrived in Las Terrenas, we first visit Playa Coson. There you can swim in the sea or visit a Dominican restaurant. Alternatively you can have lunch in a Bavarian restaurant (not included in the price). From here we continue to Playa Bonita and then along Playa Las Ballenas to Las Terrenas. Here you have the opportunity to buy souvenirs in various shops, such as the Larimar jewelry stone, which can only be found in the Dominican Republic.
The further drive goes along the paradisiacal beaches Playa Popy, Playa El Portillo and Playa Carolina, where you can also visit mangroves near the beach. Via the Playa Barbacoa and Playa Limon we continue through the village El Limon to the very remote Playa Moron, where one has a paradisiacal dream scenery all to oneself and can take a last bath in the sea.
