Punta Cana - Travel Guide

Bávaro and Punta Cana: dozens of miles of white sandy beaches with palm trees, crystal clear water with a pleasant temperature. The pearl white dream beach is the main attraction in Punta Cana. The resorts account for about 40,000 rooms are all on or within walking distance of the beautiful white sandy beach.

Punta Cana has long been a vacation hotspot for two decades thanks to the incredible climate and fantastic beaches. Throughout the year Punta Cana has an abundance of sunshine and warm sea temperatures of around 26 °C (78 °F). Many vacationers consider the winter season with its cooler temperatures to be the best time to visit Punta Cana. The precipitation and humidity are relatively low during the winter as well. Vacationers who prefer higher temperatures for their break in Punta Cana, should consider taking their holiday between May and October, though September is the most active for hurricane related storms (though the hurricane itself is unlikely to hit Punta Cana). During the summer, temperatures rise in Punta Cana above the 30 °C (86 °F), with an average of nine hours high sun per day. There may be daily showers which clear the air and give a moment away from the intense heat, but it does not disrupt your holiday.

A tip: do not worry too much about the weather forecasts showing icons of clouds and thunderstorms! The weather is very specific to the locality of the weather station and if it rains somewhere within the range of the station, a rain icon will be displayed. You will sometimes see thunderstorms predicted or recorded for every day of a two week period. It does NOT mean that it will rain every day for that fortnight. The weather is usually better at the coast anyway, which is where the hotels are.
