With a livelier vibe, the island's golden north coast is popular with families, golfers and surfers. The main resort, Playa Dorada is the perfect choice for families and is built around a golf course, just next to the beach. Bahia Maimon, Costa Dorada and Cabarete all have great watersports and lively Cabarete is known for its restaurants and nightlife.

If you love beaches, be prepared to fall head-over-heels with Bavaro and Bayahibe, where white powdery sands stretch for miles with great watersports and stunning tropical scenery. The underwater views are spectacular too with Bayahibe's coral reefs being popular with scuba divers.
