Located halfway between Santo Domingo and La Romana, Juan Dolio is a perfect escape for couples and families. While the town is calm and peaceful, excitement is only minutes away in the form of an excursion to La Romana or Santo Domingo. Other excursions include scuba diving, a baseball game at San Pedro Tetelo Vargas stadium, or one of the many other day trips available from tour operators.

While the waters at Playa Juan Dolio are not as ideal for swimming as neighboring Boca Chica, the beach is not as busy. Restaurants, bars and resorts line the beach and provide all-day entertainment.
