Nagua, the capital of the María Trinidad Sánchez province in the northern part of the Dominican Republic, is situated on the shores of Samana Bay on the Caribbean coast, about a two-hour drive from the capital, Santo Domingo. This small city of about 100,000 people is known for its quiet beaches, lush tropical vegetation and unique cultural atmosphere. The local economy is based on agriculture (cacao, coconuts) and fishing, but in recent years it has gained attention for its ecotourism. The nearby "Los Hatios" National Park is a protected mangrove area for bird watching and kayaking. With its traditional Dominican flavor, fresh seafood cuisine and local music, Nagua is an ideal destination to escape the crowds and enjoy a slower pace of life in the Caribbean.
