In our first video from Jarabacoa, we showed you the most incredible UTV adventure through the tremendous mountains of the Dominican Republic. In this video, we're bringing you the most adventurous activity you can find in this area - paragliding.
Somehow between glass 2 and 3 of white wine at Jamaca De Dios the day before, we decided that parasailing off the top of the mountain would be a GREAT idea...and to be honest, it was. What. A. Morning!! A quick 30 minute drive through the chilly pine forests took us to a lookout far above the town of Jarabacoa and WAY higher than Jamaca De Dios, the most famous scenic restaurant spot in the area.
We booked a morning flight with Flying Tony (www.flyindr.com/) and it was an incredible experience. At under $60 USD per person, we highly recommend it. The whole experience lasts about 15 minutes from jump off to landing in a field near town.
All that crazy adventure meant we were starving by the time it was all done, so we met up with ‪@DelightfulTravellers‬ at a highly-recommended BBQ spot, Parador Corazon de Jesus for some delicious ribs (paradorcorazon.... This was by far our favorite meal of the entire trip - DO NOT miss this spot if you head to Jarabacoa.

Great video! It only "does not look like Dominican Republic" to tourists or foreigners that only see the beach advertisements. The Dominican Republic is mountainous country that also happens to have beaches. There are Domininicans living in these mountain towns that have never seen the beach. By the way, Dominican Republic also has the lowest point in the Caribbean, Lago Enriquillo. Love your videos. Keep them coming!!!
@VoyagerGuru
@VoyagerGuru 2 года назад
That’s so true! You’re absolutely right. The Dominican Republic that is advertised in the US and much of the world is really just punta cana! It is almost unbelievable when you get here to experience the magnitude of diverse regions and towns. We absolutely love it! Lago Enriquillo is definitely on our list - we hear it has crocodiles?!? Crazy!!

@@VoyagerGuru Unfortunately, most of the hotels are own by foreigners (U.S, Europe). Yes, is the only place in the Caribbean that American Crocodiles are in their natural habitat. That area also has the Bahoruco mountain range, more wonderful beaches, and a magnetic pole.

Great video guys and also informative. The DR has 5 microclimates, these ecosystems some are unique to DR. There are 128 protected areas, divided into National Parks and ecosystems. In addition, there is Jaragua-Bahoruco-Enriquillo Biosphere Reserve, as well as the Silver Bank Whale Sanctuary. It's a constant battle to protect these areas from land squatters, farmers, illicit coal making "entrepreneurs" from the border. The Ribera Country Club in Jarabacoa is a great place to eat do zipline and they have now glamping along the river. Pino Criollo (Pinus occidentalis) is a pine tree endemic to the island and cousin to the North American species, the most common tree of the island. Valle Nuevo, Constanza will probably confuse more, there you are not in DR anymore. Blessings, you are doing a terrific job.

Hi Cesar, thanks for your comment! There are definitely many small hotels and bed and breakfast style accommodations, but there are no big hotels or big brands like a Marriott, or even Bahia principe, for example. For people watching from the US or Canada, who may be used to punta cana, this may be surprising. Also, as a note we found it more cost affective as a group to book a villa - the hotels seemed a bit overpriced for what they offer.

Also any suggestions on learning Spanish (starting Duolingo now)?
