Explore the Scenic Bridges of Samaná

Words and Photography by Gary Donaldson

The Bridges of Samaná consist of three pedestrian walkways. They connect the town of Samaná to two small, uninhabited, islands (Cayo Linares and Cayo Vigía) in the Samaná Bay. If you’re looking to explore the scenic bridges of Samaná, these walkways offer a perfect opportunity to do so.

The bridges offer 2165 ft of scenic coastal walking and panoramic views of the bay and sailboats on their mooring. The setting is serene and great for nature lovers and photographers. They are a unique and tranquil attraction for both locals and travelers of the Samaná Peninsula.

A few photographs and some history from Custer State Park in South Dakota.

    A narrow street in Old Havana. Faded pastels, laundry strung above the street, salsa drifting from an open doorway and the unhurried rhythm of everyday life. From the archives, a return to La Habana Vieja in 2015.

    Chester Creek Falls Last Fall I was hiking in Duluth, Minnesota and came upon this site. I snapped a quick photo with my iPhone (it was all I had at the time). I made a mental note to return with a proper camera. Well, I checked that reminder off this past weekend.
