Blanca beach (Dominican Republic) is located outside the Pueblo Viejo settlement, which may cause some difficulties for travelers who stay far from the coast. However, the remoteness from the village is not always a bad thing. Lovers of quiet rest know, the farther the beach, the fewer crowds.

The beach stretches on the sunny coast and the easiest way to get to the beach is by car or bike. If you don't have this option, then the second best solution is to use the taxi, which can drive you directly to the beach. The only problem, if your stay is far away it can be quite expensive. There is also a possibility of use of public transport, but in this case you need to check the correct route to the Blanca beach with the locals. Take into account that the bus stop is usually in some distance., but accessing the beach requires traversing some distance on foot. While driving or cycling are the most convenient options for reaching the start point of trail, these methods may not be feasible for everyone. Alternatively, a taxi can be used to drive directly to the location. Public transportation is another option, but it's important to confirm the correct route with locals beforehand as the bus stop may be located at some distance.

User reviews

"The trek to the beach may be a bit of a workout, but the unspoiled coastline is worth the sweat. It's a refreshing change from the crowded tourist traps. Don't forget to pack plenty of hydration and SPF, unless you enjoy resembling a lobster. The natives are hospitable enough, but don't expect them to roll out the red carpet for you."

Davilys Daven

"The tranquil beach boasts of pristine waters that are as clear as crystal. The seclusion of the place offers a perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of the city life. The absence of crowds makes it an ideal spot to unwind and rejuvenate. The little trek to reach the beach adds to the adventure and makes the experience all the more worthwhile. Overall, it's a perfect geta..."
