Health Tips for Visitors in Santo Domingo
Practical things to know before and during your stay in the Dominican Republic’s capital.
Only drink bottled water
Tap water in Santo Domingo is not safe for drinking. Always use sealed bottled water. Avoid ice from unknown sources — gastrointestinal infections are common among tourists.
Urban heat is real
Santo Domingo is a busy city with intense heat and humidity. Wear light clothing, stay hydrated, and apply SPF 50+ sunscreen even when walking — heatstroke and dehydration are common visitor complaints.
Use insect repellent
Dengue is active in Santo Domingo, especially during the rainy season (May–October). Use DEET-based repellent outdoors, particularly in parks, the Zona Colonial, and at night.
Choose restaurants wisely
Stick to busy, well-reviewed establishments. Avoid raw salads or fresh juices made with tap water at street vendors. Cooked food from established restaurants is generally safe.
Carry a passport copy
You’ll need a valid ID to purchase prescription medication at Dominican pharmacies. Keep a digital copy on your phone as backup to your physical document.
