talking about the same currency.

19. Weather
Except in the central mountains, temperatures don’t vary much in the
Dominican Republic, averaging a summery 81ºF (28ºC) to 87ºF (31ºC) in
most places for much of the year. Tropical humidity can make the
temperatures feel higher, though sea breezes help mitigate the effect. The
rainy season is May to October, though in Samaná and on the north coast it
can last until December. August and September constitute hurricane
season.
Info
The Dominican Republic is a Caribbean country that occupies the eastern
two-thirds of the Caribbean island of Hispaniola. The western one-third of
Hispaniola is occupied by the country of Haiti. To the north lies the North
Atlantic Ocean, while the Caribbean Sea lies to the south.
The Dominican monetary unit is the peso, indicated by the symbol RD$.
The official language of the Dominican Republic is Spanish. You will find
some Spanish-English bilingual locals especially in Santo Domingo and
tourist areas. If you speak some Spanish, most Dominicans will try hard to
meet you half way and communicate.
Don’t drink the tap water
Western travelers should dress casually and remove rings and other
jewelry when away from tourist destinations, but common tourist
destinations, particularly the more expensive and the luxury hotels and
areas, are very safe.
