Why The Dominican Republic, Why Now?

Find Privacy Outside the Usual

With more than 1,300 kilometres of coastline spanning beaches, rainforest, mountains and protected landscapes, the country offers a yacht itinerary to feel genuinely individual on and off the deck. Spend a few days at Casa de Campo before cruising the turquoise waters of Isla Saona and continuing north to Samaná Bay, where migrating humpback whales gather each winter.

The combination of privacy, natural beauty and luxury allows for a chance to experience the Caribbean at a different pace, with the yacht itself providing the freedom to move beyond the better-known destinations. The country is also enhancing its luxury offering, with investment in facilities and streamlined procedures designed to make arriving and cruising by yacht as seamless as possible.

Courses Well Above Par

Golf gives the Dominican Republic another unique advantage. At Casa de Campo, three Pete Dye-designed courses — Teeth of the Dog, Dye Fore, The Links and the members-only La Romana Country Club course — offer very different playing experiences, with Teeth of the Dog positioned directly on the stunning Caribbean coastline and the trio amounting to 90 holes of golf. Further east, Punta Espada adds another world-class option. The Jack Nicklaus Signature course opened in 2006 and features eight holes playing along or over the sea.

For a superyacht itinerary, the appeal is obvious: a destination where days can move effortlessly between the water and some of the Caribbean’s most acclaimed fairways. Golf will also take centre stage at the 1970 Superyacht Rendezvous, with a dedicated tournament giving guests the chance to experience one of the destination’s standout attractions first-hand.

And golf is only the beginning. Rainforests, beaches, ziplining and white-water rafting offer a very different side of the country, while Santo Domingo adds restaurants, shopping and culture to the mix. The result is a destination where a yacht can be a base for a remarkably varied few days ashore. 

A Reimagined Superyacht Haven

For 1970 and Casa de Campo guests, the experience also extends beyond the four-day rendezvous through the Home Port Programme. Participating yachts receive priority marina access for extended stays, complimentary berthing and preferential fuel pricing. The 1970 Superyacht Rendezvous will bring the international superyacht community to Casa de Campo, pairing life on board with some of the destination’s standout experiences.

Together, these advantages open the door to a different side of the Caribbean, where superyachts can leave the familiar behind and discover the Dominican Republic at its most captivating, from secluded coastlines to extraordinary landscapes and experiences found nowhere else.

 

 

From its early foundations to becoming one of the Caribbean’s leading yachting destinations, Marina Casa de Campo continues to evolve, offering world-class facilities, exceptional services, and a vibrant waterfront community.
