About Renting a Car at Boca Chica Center
Boca Chica is a popular beach destination 3 km from Las Américas International Airport and 30 km east of Santo Domingo. With the only rental company in the city center, you have easy access to a car to explore the coastline toward Juan Dolio (25 km to the east). Playa Boca Chica beach is protected by a coral reef and is one of the calmest bathing beaches in the country.
The center is compact with restaurants and shops along Calle Duarte, and traffic can be intense on weekends when residents from Santo Domingo arrive. Avoid driving into Santo Domingo during rush hours (07–09 and 17–19) – the 30 km can take over an hour. Fill up at the gas station on Route 3 just outside the city center; prices are lower than at tourist spots.
