Whale watching in Samana, Dominican Republic
Many people who are unfamiliar with the Dominican Republic will be unaware that it is one of the best places in the world to go whale watching.
Samana Bay is located on the East coast of the island. Every year between January and March, an estimated 5,000 humpback whales arrive to breed and rear their newborn calves in a massive but shallow lagoon, ideal for breeding and whale watching.
These fantastic creatures are now well habituated to the whale watching boats. They seem to carry on their often hilarious
antics and courtship routines oblivious to the floating human traffic above. They are even known for jumping
out of the water to give a photo opportunity!

Prison gigs:
In 2006 Andy Ashcroft [British Ambassador to the DR], Roberto Santana [a Dominican TV host] and myself played 2 gigs at the Najayo women`s prison
in Dominican Republic. The second gig was in front of wife of the Dominican President. Check out the story and photo`s below.

Some merengue recommendations
Juan Luis Guerra is the most popular merengue artist in the Dominican Republic.
His greatest hits collection is a must!
A Bachata recommendation
Bachata is also incredibly popular in the Dominican Republic.
The following album gives a good feel for this type of music.
