Once a small fishing village with many miles of white beach, Las Terrenas has developed into a major beach destination, not only for foreigners but also for many Dominicans.
Sitting on the beach or at one of the restaurants on the beach, you are in the best position to watch sunsets colouring the sky pink and red before dipping the surroundings in darkness. The only pity of Las Terrenas is that many people go around on quads, noisy scooter-like vehicle with 4 wheels. They seem to be everywhere, and almost never stop circulating, giving a nasty noise to the otherwise quiet streets of this former fishing village. One of the activities to be done here is, obviously, scuba diving, and with some spectacular underwater caves and tunnels, this is one of the exciting things you can do when you are done lazing on the beach.
