Bayahibe Beach, Public beach in La Altagracia Province, Dominican Republic

Bayahibe Beach is a coastal stretch with light-colored sand and clear water along the Caribbean, bordered by palms and rocky formations. The shoreline combines shallow swimming areas with deeper zones suitable for various water activities.

The village of Bayahibe was founded in the late 1800s when families from other regions settled here for fishing. It later developed slowly into a small tourist destination while keeping its roots in fishing.

The beach remains connected to the working lives of local fishers who practice their traditional craft here. You can watch colorful boats and observe fishing methods that have been central to the area for generations.

The beach is easily accessible during the day and has basic services like restaurants and boat rentals nearby. You'll find the water calmest in morning hours when the area is less crowded.

The waters offshore are home to sea turtles that you can sometimes spot, especially in shallower areas. These animals are important to the ecosystem and make a visit feel like a special nature experience.
