Letrero Macao: A Photographic Paradise

Getting There

• Car

  If you're driving from the main hotel zone in Punta Cana-Bávaro, start by heading northwest on Av. Alemania. Continue straight for about 5 kilometers until you reach the intersection with Av. Barceló. Turn left onto Av. Barceló and drive for approximately 2 kilometers. You will then see signs for Macao Beach. Follow the signs to Macao Beach (Playa Macao). Once you reach Macao Beach, look for the Letrero Macao, which is the colorful photo sign located at the beach entrance. There is no entry fee to access the beach or the sign.

• Public Transportation

  For those using public transportation, you can take a local 'guagua' (minibus) from the main transport hub in Punta Cana. Look for a guagua headed to Macao Beach; these typically cost around 100-150 Dominican Pesos (approximately $2-$3 USD). The ride takes about 30-45 minutes. Once you arrive at Macao Beach, it's a short walk (about 5-10 minutes) to the Letrero Macao. Follow the signs to the beach area where the colorful sign is located.

• Taxi

  If you prefer a more direct option, you can take a taxi from your accommodation in Punta Cana-Bávaro to Letrero Macao. Make sure to agree on the fare before starting your journey. The cost should be around 1,500-2,500 Dominican Pesos (approximately $30-$50 USD) depending on your starting point. The taxi ride typically takes about 20-30 minutes. The driver will know the location of Letrero Macao, so you can simply ask them to take you there.
