Heading to Dominican Republic? Dominican Republic, Dominican Republic, sits at 18.6°N in a tropical climate zone. The averages on this page are measured at Punta Cana, the main gateway for US travellers; inland and mountain areas run cooler.

Where they agree you can trust it; the days they split are exactly when a single weather app is least reliable.
