With 6 hours of sunshine every day, minimal rainfall and, of course, tropical heat, Bahia Maimon in December is the ideal holiday destination for anyone that wants to enjoy some winter sun. The temperature during this month can reach highs of 29°C (84°F) or drop to lows of 19°C (66°F).
It goes without saying that Bahia Maimon enjoys fantastic weather throughout the year, as you would expect from any resort in the Dominican Republic. However, as a winter holiday location, it is hard to top.
Bahia Maimon makes for the perfect alternative to any colder winter climates you may be facing at home.
Granted, December sees more wet weather than other months, but wet spells tend to clear quickly and should not spoil your time on the beach. The average amount of rainfall is 242 mm over 11 days.
The average temperature of the sea is 27°C (81°F).
A holiday in December also has the added advantage of lower levels of humidity, so you may well find that the climate is much more comfortable and pleasant than it can be in the prime summer season, especially if you're not used to intense heat.
During this festive season there's plenty of nightlife to try out in Bahia Maimon. Most of it is centred around the hotels, whose clubs will be open until the early hours. Beach bars and clubs offer an alternative to the resort entertainment as well. Or, for a more varied scene, a trip to nearby Puerto Plata will have yet more parties to keep you up until the sun comes out.
