It's fiesta time in Bayahibe this weekend, with an event called "Vive Bayahibe" scheduled for the Friday, 25 August to Sunday, 27 August weekend. The event offers tourists a chance to interact with the local culture. It is sponsored by the Romana Bayahibe Hotels Association, the Vive Bayahibe Committee (Bayahibe Alive), and the Romana Bayahibe Tourism Cluster (with USAID-Chemonics support). Most of the events will take place on Calle La Bahia, Bayahibe (from Restaurante La Punta to Restaurant Barco Bar), from 6:00pm to 2:00am. Attractions include typical dance music (perico ripiaos, trios, bachata, palos, and more), sale of Dominican products, arts and crafts, cigars, fruits and sweets, and art exhibitions. Stages have been set up all around the town. Because of the proximity, the event is of special interest to guests staying at the Dominicus, Bayahibe and La Romana hotels. There will be a free bus service to the town from these hotels. Bayahibe is a two hour trip from Punta Cana hotels and less than half an hour from La Romana. It is about an hour and a half from Santo Domingo.
Bayahibe is a main port city from where excursions depart to the National Park of the East beach and nature attractions.
