Puerto Plata
Puerto Plata
The sun-soaked north coast of the Dominican Republic delivers a great vacation at a price sure to please Canadians! Always one of our most popular destinations, it combines golden beaches, casinos, golf, and infectious Dominican merengue music.
Puerto Plata, site of Columbus’ landing on the island in 1492, is today a busy little city with a wide beachfront promenade. Well worth a visit is the newest attraction in the area – Ocean World Adventure Park, where you can swim with dolphins and sharks(!) and see an amazing rainforest complete with Bengal tigers.
The resort area of the town is called Playa Dorada and is a self-contained enclave featuring a wide golden beach, all-inclusive resorts, an 18-hole golf course, shops and a casino.
Further east of Playa Dorada you’ll find Cabarete (pronounced cab-ah-RETT-ay), the windsurfer’s and kite surfer’s nirvana. Dozens of brightly coloured sails dot the turquoise water; while ashore funky bars and shops line the busy road along the beach.
