"Las Terrenas is a small beach town located on the northeast coast of the Dominican Republic.

Additionally, expats should be aware that the local language is Spanish and it is beneficial to learn some basic phrases before arriving. The climate in Las Terrenas is tropical and hot, so expats should be prepared for high temperatures and humidity.
