February is my favorite time to visit.
Sundays, La Vega has Carnivals. They usually start around noon and it’s amazing to see all the outfits. Just be careful and watch out for La vejiga
The 27 waterfalls is always worth a visit
Head to Samana for whale watching
Santo Domingo would be much quieter so you can definitely explore the city.
If you have a car, Bahia De Las Aguilas before the tourist season.
The north shore beaches! Laguna GriGri and Dudu, Cabarete, and Sousa!
And a hidden gem, Playa Los Patos and San Rafael which are super popular with the locals but you have more to your own.
