by Umfufu There is a lot you can do on this island. So take some good shoes with you and a lot of cotton clothes. Make sure you have some sunbathing things with you.

That it with you but i do not think you will need anything. The food is fresh when you are staying in a hotel, if you are not in a hotel, make sure you do all the that you have to take care of before eating anything.
Take all you have.....and also take a watercamera. When you have to buy a watercamera you will have to pay a lot more then you do in your homeland.
Good shoes and light clothes. Make sure you take a sweater but if you need it is something else, but when you are going with a jeep or you go into the jungle you will need sleaves againt the musquitoos.
Snorklinggear and maybe your horsebackridinggear. Leave a Comment

In addition to one big suit bag with lots of pockets and a small suitcase, we always bring along a hockey bag for hauling extra pillows and our snorkeling gear. Toiletries go in the small case or in carry-on. It is also useful to have a small canvas beach bag folded in your luggage and a money belt.
Not many clothese are really needed here. A couple of swimsuits, hat, cover-up, shorts, t-shirts or tanks for day, and a couple or three dresses for evening and long pants and a couple of golf shirts for the men. Comfortable but chic sandals (for beach or dinner) and a pair of running shoes (for adventuring) are all the necessary footwear. I took one cotton sweater which I only wore on the plane and a cotton jacket that I never wore. Fold-up umbrellas are a good idea since it can really rain hard, but it's not cold rain.
Take all the tolietries and medecine you think you might need since they are really expensive in the DR, including sunscreen, insect repellant, after-bite.
Also take whatever batteries and photo equipment you are going to use, since they are also very expensive to buy in the DR. If you are going scuba diving or snorkeling take along an underwater camera. They were selling disposable underwater cameras for $20 US in the DR.
Take books and mags for the beach - it is difficult to find reading material in English, except in the airport on the way out. For money take USD, credit card and Interac. You don't need to obtain pesos before you go. You will get pesos in change the first time you use USD, but don't take large bills or they won't be able to change them for you. Leave a Comment

Bring enough of this bills in $1 because when you have higher bills they can not pay you money back! Leave a Comment

Anything summery, and your bikini. It's hot!
The Dominican custom does not allow tourist to bring any liquids in their carry-ons. So please pack that "Brugal" rum in your check-in luggage.
