Be a kid again and make a sand castle
marielexoteria Says: These 2 were having lots of fun building a castle in between ocean dips :D
marielexoteria Says: The beach in Cayo Levantado is excellent for snorkeling, kayaking, swimming or just relaxing while getting a tan. The sand and the air are usually warmer than the water, which makes for a refreshing dip in the Atlantic.
alfredop Says: If able, don't just stay at the public beach, walk along the island, you'll find marvelous spots...
alfredop Says: On the highest part of the island, you'll find the Mirador which is the perfect spot for feeling the breeze, get the best pictures and find your inner self!
alfredop Says: Walk across the island to find your perfect spot. Try to get into the small and lonely beaches, rather than the crowded public one but be aware of the time as if the boat leaves you, you're stuck until the next day.

Occidental Cayo Levantado: Nearest option
alfredop Says: Didn't stay there but would have loved to... the only hotel in the island is said not to be luxorious but confortable. Situated on the Samaná peninsula. Built in one of the most spectacular environments of the Dominican Republic, within a National Natural Park. With views...
The restaurant at the beach: Buffet and à la carte
marielexoteria Says: There's a big hut like building where people eat (but you could take your food to the beach too, as long as you don't litter) and the day we visited, there were a lot of people on tour eating there. their buffet food table was set with some device (like a water bed but not...
marielexoteria Says: There are boats that go between the island and the mainland. As far as I know that should be arranged from the mainland as you tell them what time you want them to pick you up but I'm sure there are boat people on the island that can take you to the mainland and back if your...
alfredop Says: From Samana, take the Cayo Levantado day-trip tour or one-way trip. Last boat departs at 6PM so be warned and don't loose it!
marielexoteria Says: The many stands on the way to and from the pier (depending on where you're going to) have very nicely crafted jewelry made with Dominican larimar, amber and other stones like jade. You can also find nice paintings, coffee, rum and other Dominican crafts. The question is...
marielexoteria Says: It's not a danger tip, more like a FYI. You'll find vendors pushing you to buy their products, sometimes even more than once. Just firmly say no and they'll leave you alone.
marielexoteria Says: When you're coming into the island there's a station with parrots (and close to the beach there's a man with a seal) and if you want to pet them or have a picture with them then you have to pay for it, as pictures with YOUR camera aren't allowed. The same goes for a seal...
