Getting There

Car

If you are driving from the town of Samaná, take the Route 5 road (Carretera Samaná) heading towards Las Terrenas. Follow the signs for Las Terrenas, which will lead you through beautiful countryside. The drive takes approximately 30-40 minutes. As you approach, you will notice signs for Punta Popy and Playa Las Terrenas. Continue straight until you reach the junction of Avenida Italia, where you will turn left. Follow this road until you see signs for Las Terrenas Beach and the parking areas available.
Public Transportation (Bus)

From Samaná, you can take a public car (guagua) to Las Terrenas. Head to the main bus terminal in Samaná, located near the waterfront. Look for a guagua marked for Las Terrenas. The fare is approximately 150-200 DOP (Dominican Pesos) per person, and the trip takes about 45 minutes to an hour, depending on traffic. Once you arrive in Las Terrenas, it is a short walk to Las Terrenas Beach. Just follow the signs towards the beach area.
Taxi

For a more direct route, consider taking a taxi from any location in Samaná to Las Terrenas Beach. Make sure to agree on a fare before starting your journey; expect to pay around 2,500 DOP to 3,500 DOP for the trip. The taxi will take you directly to the beach, making it a convenient but more expensive option.
