Boats from Miami/Puerto Rico to/from Santo Domingo?
On one of my trips I met a cat from Puerto Rico who took a boat to Santo Domingo. I was wondering if anyone on this board knows any details about this, especially the cost.
Also, are there any boats going to the DR from Miami. I need to hit Miami and/or Puerto Rico on my way to and from the DR this year so my plans need to be flexible enough to fit all of this in. Timewise a boat here and there may be more flexible than an airplane so I am wondering if anyone can help. Thanks in advance.
There is a ferry between the DR and Puerto Rico. If you search here or google there are threads on that. Some cruise ships stop in the La Romana area. From Miami or Fort Lauderdale maybe as part of a longer route. I don't think there are just MIA/FLL - SDQ and back regularly. It is impossible to imagine a boat being more flexible than an airplane (or cheaper) - SDQ-SJU is about an hour, SDQ-MIA is under two hours, while the ferry is 12 or 13 hours , to MIA would be measured in days probably, also there are a bunch of flights daily from all over the DR to MIA and SJU.
Ferries del Caribe run the Mayaguez, PR to SD route on alternating days. Ship leaves around 8pm and gets to SD 12 hours later. About US$179 for a lounge type chair, staterooms cost a bit more. E.
Hello, another thing is that from Mia to RD only come cruisse to La Romana port, in the ferrys from SD to Mayaguez if you buy the ticket with cabine is more expensive, it´s a trip of 12 hrs. (809) 688-4400 for Reservations or more Info.
