Activities & Tours
Activities
Each and every day and every night, there is always something happening at Blackbeard's — and the whole north coast is right outside the gate.
At The Resort
Day and night, right here
We offer a variety of activities here at the resort, all of them a few steps from your room.
-
Lagoon Pool
Our large tropical lagoon-style pool is a great place to cool down or join in a game of volleyball. Guys in the deep end, girls in the shallow end.
-
Jacuzzi
A private hideaway to relax, soak your troubles away and enjoy a cold beverage.
-
Drunken Parrot Bar
Drink, eat, dance, shoot the breeze with your friends or watch a game on one of our big TVs. Our Dominican roast coffee is hot and always free, and the beer is always ice cold.
-
Crow's Nest Bar
Or "Bar Arriba", as we say here. Our upstairs bar is party central for dancing, shows, big-screen sporting events and more.
-
Billiards
Rack 'em up and break 'em! Our pool table is always busy and always free, with a wide variety of cues to choose from.

Weekly Contests & Shows

Organized Tours
Get out and explore
During your visit, get out and experience one or more of our tours. Every tour is all-inclusive, and you book them right here at our hotel office.
Catamaran Sailing & Snorkeling
Climb aboard a 75-foot sailboat and spend the whole day cruising the coast, snorkeling and swimming. Open bar on the boat and a beach-party lunch included.
Deep Sea Fishing
Share a charter with others or book a private one for you and your friends. Half and full-day trips — marlin, sailfish, tuna, wahoo and dorado are all a possibility.
Horseback Riding
Take a leisurely ride through the countryside, mornings or afternoons.
Country World
A day of adventure in the Dominican countryside: horseback riding, zip lining, natural waterfalls and pools, and exotic wildlife.
Dune Buggies & ATVs
Motor through the country on a dune buggy or an ATV, both built for two. You will get muddy and wet — we will hose you down when you get back.
Dis-Organized & Taxi Tours

Run by the local taxi union, these are round-trip rides only — no extra costs or services included. Go on your own excursion, or get a few fellow guests together: up to four people ride for one low price.
Teleférico Cable Car
Ride to the top of Mt. Isabel de Torres for a stunning view, botanical gardens, caves, a restaurant, a bar and souvenir shops.
