You’ll find a jaw-droppingly beautiful beach practically everywhere you turn in Punta Cana, but that doesn’t stop us from having a few favorites. Here are five of Punta Cana’s best beaches to add to your vacay bucket list.

1. Bavaro Beach

All hail the crown jewel of Punta Cana! The electric blue waters and bright white sands of this beach beauty reign supreme for sun worshippers and thrill-seekers alike. Located in the heart of Punta Cana, there are tons of all-inclusive resorts scattered along Bavaro’s shores AKA there are lots of lounge chairs with cocktails just ask away. You can also let your adventurous side run wild and explore the crystal-clear waters via snorkel, jet ski or kayak.

2. Uvero Alto Beach

Looking to press pause and relax? Check out the serene shores of Uvero Alto. It’s tucked away from the main drag of beach activities, so it’s home to low-key resorts like Zoëtry Agua Punta Cana. It’s the perfect place to curl up under a palm tree, read a book and let the sound of the crashing ocean waves lull you into utter beach bliss.

3. Macao Beach

Calling all surfers! This beach haven is the go-to surf spot in Punta Cana with consistent conditions and waves. Aside from surfers, it’s a great spot for beach enthusiasts who want a little less buzz than Bavaro Beach without sacrificing beach beauty and things to do. It’s chill with a side of thrills!

4. Arena Gorda Beach

If you’re traveling with kiddos, Arena Gorda is a prime location for family fun. The waters are shallow, the waves are gentle and the sands are uber-soft. Perfect for building a sandcastle, might we add! For MORE family fun, you can’t go wrong with an all-inclusive vacay at Riu Palace Punta Cana. They have an awesome water park steps away from the sand!

5. Juanillo Beach

Did we save the best for last? Well, if your idea of the best is the most luxurious, then yes. Juanillo Beach is as beautiful as it is upscale, with luxury resorts and beach clubs dotting its palm-studded shores. Nestled in the exclusive Cap Cana neighborhood, this is the perfect spot for a splurge-worthy day spent under a cabana with a mimosa in hand.

Now that you have your bucket list in hand, it’s time to plan your Punta Cana vacay! Ready to Do Your Deal?
