The People of the Dominican Republic



The people of the Dominican Republic are in many ways a very culturally rich population of people. As a group, we Sea Savers are going to go to great lengths in order to inform all of these people the value that their country has- especially in its beautiful coastal waters!

Here are some more specific facts regarding the Dominican population.

Geography of the Dominican Republic




Our country can truly be considered one of the most beautiful places to visit in the world. For many people this Caribbean island symbolizes the perfect exotic vacation location, while others view it as a place to find adventure and explore a brand new culture. The geography and natural part of the island of Hispaniola is really what makes the place so wonderful, though. Thick jungles, rocky mountains and gorgeous beaches make the Dominican Republic a natural wonder. More specific facts about the geography of our island can be found here!

Spring Fest

Our school has a yearly Spring Fest and our GIN group made a fishing game that encouraged children to fish lion fish and not parrot fish. But this was tricky since the kids could not see what they were fishing (just like fishing with a rod). Inside of the "reef" we also placed trash and other types of fish to teach children that taking trash out of  the seas is as good as eliminating the population of lion fish. This is the video we made about our experience in the Spring Fest.
