December to March – Peak season with the most comfortable weather and minimal rain.

Travel Tips for Your Wedding in Miches

Travel Documentation – A valid passport is required for entry and exit. Always check with your Certified Destination Wedding Specialist for up-to-date travel guidelines.

Language – Spanish is the official language, but English is widely spoken at resorts and tourist areas.

Currency & Tipping – The Dominican Peso (DOP) is the official currency, but US dollars are commonly accepted in resorts and shops. Tipping is expected at all-inclusive resorts, especially for housekeeping, bartenders, and waitstaff. We recommend bringing small bills for gratuities.

Laguna Limón – Visit this serene lagoon surrounded by mangroves and coconut trees, perfect for kayaking, bird-watching, or just soaking in nature.

Whale Watching in Samaná Bay – Seasonal (January–March), but worth the short trip to see majestic humpback whales up close.
