Peravia Province, Province with coastal access in southern Dominican Republic.

The Peravia Province extends across 792 square kilometers, featuring both mountainous terrain in the Sierra de Ocoa and Caribbean coastal plains with sandy beaches.

Established in 1944, the province underwent territorial changes in 2002 when San Jose de Ocoa separated to form its own administrative division.

The province includes three municipalities and ten districts where residents maintain Dominican traditions through regular festivals, music performances, and local gastronomy.

The province connects to Santo Domingo through a road network, making the capital accessible within a one-hour drive from the provincial center of Bani.

The region contains the Punta Catalina Thermoelectric Power Plant and Las Salinas, where salt production occurs through natural evaporation methods.
