    We had a wonderful day with a very friendly guide. It was a hike along varied trails (not always easy!) and we had time to swim at several beautiful, uncrowded beaches. The guide also offered us fresh fruit (cocoa, almonds, mango, etc.).

    The tour was planned differently, but even though it was just my husband and I, they provided us with a driver and we took the tour to Rincon Beach with a very kind and attentive driver named Guillermo. We understand that we are in the low season for tourism.

Welcome to Las Galeras, a hidden gem nestled on the Samaná Peninsula in the Dominican Republic. This laid-back fishing village is a true paradise for those seeking crystal-clear waters, untouched beaches, and a relaxed atmosphere far from the crowds. From vibrant coral reefs to lush palm forests, Las Galeras invites travelers to unwind and discover a simpler, beautiful side of the Caribbean.

A Touch of History

Although Las Galeras remains small and tranquil, its roots trace back to a time when the region was mainly settled by fishermen and farmers. Over the years, the village has maintained its authentic charm, welcoming visitors curious about its unspoiled landscapes and traditional Dominican lifestyle.

When to Go

The best time to visit is from December to April, when the weather is dry and pleasant. This period also coincides with the whale-watching season, a magical experience you shouldn’t miss. If you prefer fewer visitors and budget-friendly prices, consider coming in the shoulder months of May and November.

What can I do there?

Activities range from sunbathing on Playa Rincón and snorkeling at La Playita to joining boat tours to nearby beaches and hidden coves. Adventurers can try hiking, horseback riding, or exploring lush national parks surrounding the area.
