About Barahona

Santa Cruz de Barahona, an island town connected to the Dominican Republic, is briefly referred to as Barahona. The city is an important economic resource for the country. The city, which is highly developed in the field of sugar production and processing, has a very active place both in transportation and commerce with its port. Barahona is also a tourism paradise with white beaches and clear blue waters. Moreover, it has serious resources and investments in ecotourism, not only in sea and beach holiday.

Under the influence of tropical savannah climate conditions, Barahona is able to live a twelve month tourist season under the influence of warm and sunny weather all year round. Nevertheless, May, June, September and October are not suitable for visiting Barahona because of heavy rainfall despite the hot weather. The July and August months are both the most humid and the warmest. For this reason, the best time to go to Barahona is the dry season, especially from December to March.

The airport is only 10 minutes from the city center and the port is only 5 minutes away from the city center. The local people speak Spanish and the number of people who speak English is not much; but the people who are always smiling and companionable to the tourists are always ready to help.

Swimming and sunbathing in Barahona seem to be the main activity, but especially diving and surfing are the sports that must be done in the city. Participating in various eco-tours is both enjoyable and instructive. There are a variety of bars in the city where you can get alcohol at very reasonable prices.
