Activities for Adults in Punta Cana

Punta Cana stands out as an international destination with the bluest waters and the finest sand, but the island that is bathed by the Caribbean Sea has many more secrets and activities in store for those who dare to explore beyond its paradisiacal beaches.

To correctly plan your holidays in Playa Bávaro, it’s very important that you organise your days in Punta Cana depending on whether you’re travelling as a family or as a couple, since there are so many different activities that you can find in Punta Cana that’ll ensure you have a unique experience. 

Let’s look at a few plans designed specifically for adults:

Taste the typical drinks from the Dominican Republic

Among the innumerable activities to do with your partner in Punta Cana, gastronomy plays a very important role, where drinks share centre stage. It’s no surprise that meals are usually accompanied by cocktails, juices or smoothies.  

Among the local spirits, rum is the main attraction, used in cocktails such as the piña colada with pineapple, coconut cream and rum; or the daiquiri, made from white rum and Creole lemon or lime juice, although there are many different variants. 

Another of the typical drinks from Punta Cana is the Mamajuana, which can be tried on its own or in cocktails. In addition to rum, it is classified as one of the great national drinks and is incredibly popular. It is produced in a relatively unique way, as it is the result of a maceration process in which rum, honey and red wine are mixed together, along with a series of roots, spices and pieces of wood from the Dominican country. The result of this maceration is a unique, semi-sweet drink, where you can appreciate the hint of herbs and wood introduced during the process. 

Another cocktail from the Dominican Republic worth mentioning is the Banana Mama, a refreshing drink that combines two different types of rum with tropical fruits. Although the cocktail’s ingredients may vary depending on the geographical area of the country you find yourself in, the base of white rum is usually joined by pineapple syrup, coconut cream and grenadine. The result is a cocktail with a very intense flavour, served very cold, since it is usually enjoyed in the hottest hours of the day.

Finally, within the cocktail world, the El Coco Loco is another hit, a typical drink found in all the countries that are bathed by the Caribbean Sea, however each country adapts the recipe according to its specific characteristics to create a unique flavour. The ingredients that make up the basic recipe and that never vary from country to country are rum and coconut, taking advantage of both the pulp and the water from the coconut itself, thus using all properties of the fruit. This cocktail can be enjoyed in a glass, or directly from the same coconut used to prepare this drink.

And the last Dominican drink to mention is beer, with the highlights being the “Presidente”, a lager beer, or other types such as the Behomia, the Quisqueya or the Soberante. 

You can try all of these different drinks at the bars in the Lopesan Costa Bávaro Resort Spa & Casino, spread out all over the resort, where you’ll find an extensive menu of drinks prepared by talented professionals so that you can truly enjoy a wonderful Caribbean night.  

Activities for a unique experience

In addition to being a paradise where you can enjoy swimming in the turquoise waters on fine white sandy beaches, in Punta Cana there are countless activities to do within the lush jungles or on the shores of the Dominican coast. 

Within the wide range of activities that you can enjoy as a couple, we recommend buggy adventures on the shores of the Caribbean Sea, for a shot of adrenaline while the wind of the Caribbean sea caresses your face. You can also venture into the middle of the rainforest while riding quads, or you can dive down to the bottom of the sea to interact with dolphins, stingrays or sharks. 

In addition to providing experiences that’ll push your limits, Playa Bávaro also offers activities for enjoying the Caribbean sea while sipping on a delicious cocktail or listening to some Dominican music; the party boats located along the entire coast of Punta Cana will allow you to take full advantage of the Caribbean nightlife.

Activities at a resort made just for you
