Has anyone sailed to the Dominica Republic?

[5668200]

We are booked on the Sun 1/21 and one of our ports is the Dominican Republic. I haven't seen any threads on it at all. Is this a very new port or have some of you been there? We booked the whale watch excursion. If you've been to the Dominican Republic, have you taken this excursion? Thanks a lot!

It is for NCL. The Spirit started cruising to Dominica on the November 27 cruise. You may be the first to give us a detailed review about this rare port of call.

 

Keep a watch out for the

This is the thread for the island of Dominica which is seperate from The Dominican Republic.

Do a search on Other Caribbean Ports of Call for Dominican Republic - different island altogether.

Dominica is much further south that Dominican Republic which is the Eastern half of the isle of Hispaniola (the western half is Haiti, where Labadee is found).

If you get off the ship in this port be sure you take a ships excursion. We've been there before but wouldn't get off the ship there again. That's not to say that things have changed since we were there.
