After landing at Punta Cana International Airport—one of the Caribbean’s busiest air hubs for international tourism—newly arrived passengers proceed through the customs and immigration area. The terminal architecture combines modern glass partitions, polished stone flooring, and views of exterior thatched roofing inspired by traditional Dominican palapas, blending tropical design with contemporary security infrastructure. The customs counters, marked with numbered green signage, are where visitors present passports and entry documents to border officers. The space reflects recent expansions that supported the airport’s growth, as Punta Cana became the Dominican Republic’s most visited destination starting in the 1990s and continuing into the 21st century, serving millions of tourists annually from Europe, North America, and Latin America.

The departure terminal at Punta Cana International Airport (PUJ) features a distinctive architectural design that blends modern infrastructure with Caribbean-inspired elements. The high ceilings and large green circular structures atop the support columns are stylized to resemble palm tree canopies, echoing the surrounding tropical landscape. Natural wood accents and open, airy layout contribute to a resort-like atmosphere, distinguishing this airport as one of the Dominican Republic’s busiest gateways for international tourism. Travelers line up for check-in beneath oversized ceiling fans, highlighting the airport’s open-air concept, which was developed to harmonize with the region’s climate and tourism identity.

Playa Juanillo is known as one of Punta Cana’s most picturesque stretches of coastline, located within the gated Cap Cana development on the eastern edge of the Dominican Republic. Originally a quiet fishing shoreline, the area was transformed in the early 2000s into a planned resort community, balancing luxury development with preserved natural beachfront.

The sweeping line of tall coconut palms in the photograph reflects the coastal vegetation typical of this part of Hispaniola, where sandy soils and salty ocean air support hardy palm species. The shallow turquoise water flows gently onto the white coral sand, demonstrating the calm conditions created by offshore reefs that protect much of the Dominican coastline. Today, Playa Juanillo remains both a public-access beach area and a popular gathering space for local events, weddings, and kiteboarding, offering a rare blend of untouched Caribbean scenery and curated resort amenities.

Colorful courtyard lodging buildings at Hotel El Cortecito in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic. Situated in the El Cortecito beach district—one of the earliest tourism hubs in the area—this hotel reflects the architectural style common in locally-owned coastal accommodations before the rise of large all-inclusive resorts. The turquoise and terracotta exterior, white balustrades, and open garden walkways offer a Caribbean vernacular blend intended for natural ventilation and communal outdoor space. El Cortecito developed through the 1980s and 1990s as a fishing village turned tourism enclave, with modest inns like this one often built and expanded in phases by local families, contrasting with the master-planned resort complexes that later defined Punta Cana’s international tourism growth.

Along the northeastern coast of the Dominican Republic, Macao Beach is one of the rare stretches of undeveloped shoreline in the Punta Cana region. Unlike most resort-dominated beaches of the eastern coast, Macao has remained publicly accessible, attracting both local residents and visitors for its surfing conditions, expansive sands, and panoramic views of the Atlantic. The gently rolling waves seen here are typical of the beach’s surfable breaks, shaped by offshore currents and an open coastline without coral barriers.

In the distance, the low, wooded hills form the edge of the Punta Cana–Miches coastal corridor, an area where farmland, mangroves, and small fishing communities meet tourism expansion. Known historically as a landing spot for local fishermen, Macao has also been a training and gathering place for Dominican surfing youth. Today it marks a contrast between traditional coastal use and the rapid rise of resort development across the eastern Dominican shoreline.
