The port city of Santo Domingo, capital of the Dominican Republic, is the starting point for cruises throughout the Caribbean. Cruises from Santo Domingo will take you to exceptional ports of call such as Martinique, Guadeloupe, Venezuela and Saint Martin. The Dominican capital, located in the heart of the Caribbean Sea on the island of Hispagnola, enjoys an excellent geographical position. As soon as you leave the cruise port, the "colonial zone" immerses travellers in the culture and history of the Dominican Republic. A visit to the historic zone is a must, where cruisers can discover the Autonomous University of Santo Domingo, Christopher Columbus' house, the Cathedral of Our Lady of the Incarnation and the Rio Ozama fortress. Stop off at the Spanish Steps, dominated by the Alcazar de Colon. This remarkable monument, built in 1510 for Christopher Columbus's son, is now a museum with a rich collection of paintings, furniture and weapons from the colonial era.
