Significant 5.0 quake hits near La Romana, Provincia de La Romana, Dominican Republic Just 5 minutes ago, a 5.0-magnitude earthquake struck near La Romana, Provincia de La Romana, Dominican Republic. The tremor was recorded around noon on Friday, June 26th, 2026, at 12:06 pm local time, at an intermediate depth of 71.30 km below the surface.
The event was filed by the United States Geological Survey, the first seismological agency to report it.
Based on the preliminary seismic data, the quake should not have caused any significant damage, but was probably felt by many people as light vibration in the area of the epicenter.
Weak shaking might have been felt in Boca de Yuma (pop. 2,000) located 58 km from the epicenter, San Rafael del Yuma (pop. 5,300) 65 km away, La Romana (pop. 208,400) 78 km away, Punta Cana (pop. 100,000) 82 km away, and Salvaleon de Higueey (pop. 123,800) 86 km away.
