Puerto Plata is a very popular Caribbean holiday destination. In Puerto Plata, you will find a great combination of beautiful beaches, mountains and history.
We stayed at Grand Paradise Playa Dorada hotel, a vintage but very well-kept hotel with great beaches to enjoy, good snorkelling and a long beach to walk along the coast. The food was good, and the staff was very nice and friendly, just as Dominican people are.
The purpose of this trip was to relax and get away from the Canadian winter, so we can say it was a calm trip.
Below, we show you our 5 must-do things in Puerto Plata if you are not looking for extreme adventures.
5. Walk around the main city. You will find "La Casa de la Cultura," a beautiful three-story historic building across from Puerto Plata's Parque Central (Central Park), first gaining its cultural significance as the gathering place of revolutionaries.
4. Visit Fort San Felipe (Fuerte San Felipe), one of the first European forts constructed in the Americas. It was built to defend against colonists from other European countries and pirates looking for gold.
3. Ride the cable car up to the summit of this mountain, "Pico Isabel de Torres," to wander through a pleasant botanical garden and enjoy fantastic panoramas over the city and the Atlantic ocean.
2. Go on a day trip to Sosúa Beach. The crescent-shaped Sosúa Beach is lined with shady trees and buzzes with vendors, and this is one of the region's best places for SCUBA diving and snorkelling. Take the time to enjoy the food, the music and the ambience in one of its full-of-life patios.
1. Enjoy the wonderful beach of Playa Dorada, eat fresh seafood, drink local run and relax.
Spoiler alert! Vendors may be very pushy. Try to be nice and stay calm 🙂
