Onno's Bar

Onno's Bar is an institution on the Bayahibe waterfront, a Dutch-owned beach bar and restaurant that has been serving travelers, divers, and locals since 2020. Situated right on the sand of the main village beach, with the fishing boats of Bayahibe bobbing in the background, it is the social center of this small coastal town. The open-air setting, colorful decor, and perpetually relaxed vibe embody the spirit of Caribbean village life.

The menu balances fresh seafood with international pub fare and Dominican classics. Fire-roasted pizza and street tacos are highlighted by the restaurant. The fish of the day, prepared grilled, fried, or in garlic sauce, is reliably excellent. For those seeking comfort food, the burgers, wraps, and nachos deliver solid satisfaction. The bar is known for its creative cocktails, generous rum pours, and the signature frozen drinks that keep the beach crowd cool through the hottest afternoons.

Onno's is the kind of place that defines the Bayahibe experience. After a morning of diving or a boat trip to Saona Island, there is no better place to settle into a beach chair, order a plate of grilled shrimp and a cold cocktail, and watch the sun go down over the fishing village. It is casual, authentic, and thoroughly enjoyable.
