     I would recommend to travel during the Winter Solstice and Spring Equinox seasons (December-March). It's a lot more pricier to travel and the reason so is because most people are escaping the northern hemispheres freezing temperatures for a vacation. Although most of the tourist do come in during this time, it's the best weather to enjoy in Dominican Republic. The Dominican Republic has fairly constant temperatures throughout the year but the seasons can affect the humidity levels.
During the Summer Solstice and Autumnal Equinox the temperatures are at the highest plus its very humid because these are the rainiest months in Dominican Republic and hurricane season.

     There are many activities to do while you're in Dominican Republic. One of the most popular activities to do while there during the winter Solstice is whale watching. There are many whale watching tours given but the Samana has the best location to do so.
     Another activities that you could enjoy is a hike or a light stroll through the national parks. These parks are large protected jungles that is home to many unique wild life. There are waterfalls and lagoons located here. One in particular is El Choco National Park which is located in the town of Cabarete.

Potential weather hazards occur mostly during the Summer Solstice and Autumnal Equinox. The reason why I'd recommend to travel during the Winter Solstice and Spring Equinox seasons is because it's not as humid as during the summer Solstice and Autumnal Equinox. As I mentioned before these months have hurricane and rainy seasons. You'd enjoy outdoor activities in a less humid environment, when its humid the temperature's feel a lot hotter.

Dominican Republic your escape to a paradise adventure awaits.
