Eye on Travel Podcast — Puntacana Resort & Club in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic

This week’s episode of the Eye on Travel Podcast comes from the Puntacana Resort & Club in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic. Joining Peter on this week’s show is Jake Kheel, who explains the work by Grupo Puntacana to not only preserve but rebuild the country’s coral reef system, and a remarkable but true story of why you should thank the Parrotfish for the white, sandy beaches in the Dominican Republic. Cruise Critic Managing Editor Chris Gray Faust reports on a new parade of cruise ships entering the market (how, why and where) — and why the cruise lines are building/developing their own islands in the Caribbean. Margarita González-Auffant, Director of the Alcázar de Colón Viceregal Museum in Santo Domingo, shares the historical background of Santo Domingo, including the real story of Christopher Columbus. There’s all this and more as the Eye on Travel Podcast comes from Puntacana Resort & Club in the Dominican Republic.
