What To Expect

Parque Central Independencia

It has become the most popular meeting point in Puerto Plata. In fact, its beautiful park, also known as Plaza de la Independencia, is a national symbol. It was built as a tribute to General Gregorio Luperón. He offered this beautiful park to the city of Puerto Plata, when it was the Dominican capital.

Dominican Amber Museum

About 100 meters from the Central Park on Calle Duarte, you will find the Ambar Museum. An excellent example of Victorian architecture that houses a unique collection of valuable samples of Dominican amber. Experts say this amber, known to be the most transparent in the world, qualifies as semi-precious. It is formed from tree sap that has hardened over millions of years, capturing many plant and insect fossils.

Malecon Puerto Plata

Residents of Puerto Plata proudly claim that theirs is the most beautiful boulevard (Malecón) in the Dominican Republic. Later, you'll see why when you see the many white-sand beaches that line the city's main avenue, each with a name. In addition to days on the beach within the city, the boulevard's long, shady sidewalk is ideal for morning or evening strolls - sunrises here are spectacular....

Fortaleza San Felipe

At the end of the boardwalk rests a key piece of the history of Puerto Plata, the San Felipe Fortress. Built by the Spanish in the 16th century to defend the north coast of the Dominican Republic from the British and Dutch, and from French pirates in search of the area's abundant gold and silver. Considered one of the most important colonial military structures in the Caribbean, completed in 1577, it later served as a prison and now a museum. Touring the fort reveals the original cannons facing the Atlantic, ancient weapons, and numerous hidden chambers.
