Playa el Limon is a beach on the north coast of
Dominican Republic. This is not the most beautiful beach of the island, as well as not the most comfortable. However, there are no obvious downsides here. The spot has two killer features. There is no crowd of tourists, and no algae. Shore and seabed: sand.

Hotels [edit]
Vistas del cayo is a nice hotel with a pool - on the west of the beach. Unfortunately, it is not presented in international booking systems.
How to get there [edit]
Main airports in Dominican republic:
Punta Cana international airport (PUJ),
Santo Domingo international airport (SDQ) and
Puerto Plata international airport (POP).
It is convenient to use a taxi, which is relatively inexpensive. For example, a trip from south to north of the country can cost $100.
To move between the small towns you may use minibuses (shuttle buses). Locals call them
gua-gua. One ride costs a few dollars. Bus stations are called
parada.
There is also good bus transport system in the country. We recommend
Caribe Tours and
Metro companies. Buses are brand new, and travel from one end of the country to another will cost about $10.
Though all prices given above are in U.S. dollars, it is better to have local money (
peso) when traveling around the country.
When to go [edit]
Feel free to relax in Dominicana any time of year. The sea is warmest in summer, but the heat is the most intense as well. And there is also a hurricane season from June to October. On the other side, the winter weather is more comfortable, but seawater at the northern coast is too cold that time.
