Gran Bahia Principe El Portillo All-inclusive Resort - East beach walk - Dominican Republic HD

This is a walking tour of the beach which lies to the east of the Gran Bahia Principe El Portillo All-inclusive resort. The beach is called El Portillo Beach and our walk starts in the middle of the main beach area at the resort. We proceed past the lifeguard tower and make our way out towards the east end of the beach. When we leave the hotel area we even meet some kitesurfers in full action. The Saman´beaches are rather windy so this area is a true paradise for kitesurfers.
