Send Flowers to San Pedro de Macorís, Dominican Republic

Baseball fans know San Pedro de Macorís as the city that has sent a remarkable number of players to the major leagues. Locals also call it the Sultana del Este, and its history is written in the sugar mills that ring the town and in the old houses near the Higuamo River, built when the port made this one of the most prosperous places in the Dominican Republic.

That past shaped the people. Workers who came from the English-speaking Caribbean islands to cut cane, known as cocolos, left their surnames, their churches and the Guloya dance troupes that still parade in the streets. Today the city is also a university town: the Universidad Central del Este draws medical students from abroad, and parents often send flowers for a birthday or a graduation. Typical delivery points are family homes in neighbourhoods such as Villa Velásquez, Miramar and Placer Bonito, apartments near the campus, and addresses along the seafront Malecón.

You can send flowers to San Pedro de Macorís for same-day delivery by ordering before 11:00 am local time, Monday to Saturday. After the cut-off the florist delivers the next day, and Sundays are not available. Give a clear reference point with the address, because house numbers are not always visible from the street.
