Dominican Republic: From Fairways to Freefall, Experience Cap Cana in Full Swing

The journey begins on the water, where guests disembark from their yacht via private tender before being whisked to Punta Espada in a luxurious transfer or, for the ultimate arrival, via helicopter. The Punta Espada Golf Course was selected for the twelfth time in 2022 by Golfweek magazine as No.1 of the 50 best golf courses in the Caribbean. Here, personalised itineraries await: VIP tee times, private lessons with seasoned pros, and access to the oceanfront course’s most secluded vistas ensure that each round of golf feels tailored uniquely to the visitor. 

Post-game, the club’s culinary offerings and scenic relaxation spots allow for seamless recovery, whether it is enjoying the Punta Espada Bar and Restaurant’s sun-drenched terrace overlooking the sea or enjoying a private whiskey and cigar tasting at the St. Regis Hotel which is located parallel to the golf course.

A day of high-octane adventure is equally attainable. Scape Park delivers a riveting counterpoint to Cap Cana’s serene luxury and it does so with a sense of scale and drama. Guests are invited to trade clubs for harnesses as the adventure begins with a network of zip lines sweeping you high above the jungle canopy, with each launch point revealing a new perspective on Cap Cana’s wilder side. This simply sets the tone for what’s ahead as you jump into 4x4 off-road buggies and the wheels rumble through the rugged terrain. From there, the journey moves to a pristine cenote, its cool waters offering a refreshing pause before descending into a vaulted world of rock and shadows. The park carries the atmosphere of a private adventure, reserved for those seeking nature at its most exhilarating.

Private transfers ensure seamless movement from yacht to park, conveying fluidity from Caribbean calm to exploration. Post-adventure, the transition back is just as considered with a recovery massage waiting in your suite onboard, or a seaside dinner arranged by Eden Roc Cap Cana’s executive chef.

Primarily, Cap Cana is more than a stop on a yachting itinerary, instead it is a homage to the Dominican Republic’s natural beauty, where powdery beaches, sapphire waters, and verdant landscapes come together in a way that feels both calculated yet liberating. A destination where finesse meets pulse and the day’s greatest luxury is that it belongs entirely to you.
