A Fun Day in Amsterdam, Luperon Dominican Republic
If you’re looking for a lively, laid-back place to unwind, Amsterdam in Luperon, Dominican Republic is a hidden gem worth visiting. Recently, we spent an amazing day exploring this spot, and we want to share the experience with you!
Getting There and What to Expect
To reach Amsterdam, we parked our dinghy nearby and hit the dirt road leading into town. The road is a little rough and dusty — you might get dirt blowing at you — but it only adds to the charm of the adventure. Once you arrive, you’ll notice a welcoming atmosphere where locals and visitors mingle.
Hanging Out with Friends and Enjoying Local Flavors
One of the highlights was meeting up with Alex and Bart, the friendly pizza makers whose delicious pies keep everyone happy. We enjoyed great drinks (I chose water to stay hydrated!) and soaked up the warm, sunny environment. There’s a relaxed vibe here that makes it easy to unwind after a long day.
Fun Activities to Try: Pickleball and Bocce Ball
Amsterdam’s community spirit is alive and well with outdoor games like pickleball and bocce ball (sometimes humorously called “bokea ball”). Watching Corey and his wife play showed just how much fun these simple games can be. They’re the reigning champions of bocce ball around here — even if Corey’s a bit mischievous with his moves!
Tips for Your Visit
Bring comfortable shoes and be ready for some dust on the road.
Try the local pizza — Alex and Bart do an excellent job.
Join in on outdoor games or simply watch and enjoy the friendly competition.
Stay hydrated; the summer warmth can sneak up on you.
If you like water activities, consider a quick dip to cool off like we did.
Amsterdam in Luperon is perfect for travelers seeking a mix of relaxation, fun, and new friendships. Whether you’re island-hopping or just exploring the area, don’t miss out on stopping here for some good times.
