📍 Dominican Republic
Playa Cayo Levantado lies on a small island just offshore from Punta Balandra in Samaná Bay, along the southern side of the Samaná Peninsula. The beach is defined by pale sand, clear turquoise shallows, coconut palms and the island’s densely green interior, while boats anchored near shore add scale and local activity to the scene. Views across the bay connect the tropical foreground with the forested mainland, especially striking when sunlight reveals bands of blue and green in the water. Cayo Levantado is reached only by boat, and part of the island is occupied by a resort, so visitors should respect the boundaries between public and private areas.
