Punta Cana
Horseback riding vs private yacht Punta Cana for indecisive travellers
Two ends of the romance/celebration spectrum. Horse on Macao Beach at sunset ($55–110 pp, 1–2h) — the iconic 'photo on the beach with palms' moment. Private yacht ($1,800–5,000+/day) — the iconic 'champagne, anchor in a secluded cove, no one else for miles' moment. Anniversary or proposal weekends often combine both: horse on day 1 for the photos, yacht on day 3 for the actual celebration.
