Internships Abroad in the Dominican Republic

The Dominican Republic is the second-largest nation in the Caribbean, and it occupies the eastern two-thirds of the island of Hispaniola. From the tallest mountain peak in the area to the various architectural structures, it’s no wonder that this attractive land is the most visited destination in the Caribbean. Here are the best cities for interning in the Dominican Republic. 

Santo Domingo. The capital of the Dominican Republic is situated on the banks of the Ozama River on the coast of the Caribbean Sea in the southeastern area. Being the site of the first castle, fortress, monastery, university, and cathedral in the New World under Spanish colonial rule, history lovers will be in heaven here. This city is the hub for business, politics, and media, and if you’re interested in community development, you’ll find a plethora of internships to assist staff in that department. 

Santiago. The second-largest city in the Dominican Republic is located in the northern area of the country. Here you can visit museums that showcase the Carnival culture, tobacco plantations, Restoration War, and more. You could also visit Kaskada Park, which is a family water park, and El Monumental, which is the symbol of the Ciudad Corazón. Santiago offers education and service-learning internships. 

La Romana. You’ll find this city in the southeastern area of the country on the coast. This city is the epicenter of tourism, where the Casa de Campo is a resort that offers beaches and golf courses. Just minutes away is Altos de Chavón, which is a 16th century Mediterranean village replica. The town offers an abundance of medical internships as well as educational internships.
