Dominican Republic Yacht Charter

Leader in Ecotourism

The Dominican Republic is really doing its bit. As the most visited tourist destination in the Caribbean – there’s diving, mountain biking, sensational coastlines and resorts aplenty – it could sit back and get fat. But an abundance of national parks and marine sanctuaries show determination to hold on to its natural wonders. Y.CO charters can show you the lot: from Hawksbill turtle hatcheries to the thriving marine habitats along the northern coast.

Reasons to Visit the Dominican Republic

Cabarete, Adventure Capital

Want to go a little wild after days spent afloat? Disembark from your Y.CO charter at Cabarete on the north coast where wind, waves and the trails of the Parque Nacional El Choco encourage all sorts of adrenalin activities. You’ll discover some of the island’s best surfing at Playa Encuentro, reliable winds for kitesurfing and windsurfing, and banging beachside nightlife.

Santo Domingo’s Zona Colonial

Curious about the Republic’s colonial past? Santo Domingo, former capital of the Spanish New World, retains an 11-block cobbled ‘Zona Colonial’ where some buildings date back 500 years. It’s best to moor your Y.CO charter at the marina in Boca Chica and commit to at least one night in town. Once in the Zona, sights such as the oldest stone cathedral in the western hemisphere are within casual strolling distance.
