In the Dominican Republic generally, dancing and partying are a way of life, and are never far away. You can have a great time anywhere, whether in the small towns and villages or in the capital, Santo Domingo; singing and dancing take place indoors and out. The Dominican Republic is highly popular with tourists, but the enjoyment of partying and dancing is shared equally between the Dominicans themselves and visitors from all over the world. The balance varies depending on whether it’s a weekday or the weekend, but there’s always a happy, friendly mix.
