The city is a hub for a growing tourist industry with several nearby local resort spots, such as the beachfront Bayahibe, Dominicus, Casa de Campo, and the growing number of golf resorts that surround the area. A very popular way of getting around the town is through riding motor bikes as well as gua guas that's another name for buses.
