Best places: Things to dos in Puerto Plata, Dominican Republic

A hike or cablecar leads to a mountaintop in this lush park featuring a garden & a Christ statue.

😐 ****Alert**** This is definitely a beautiful place to visit and appreciate the scenic view of Puerto Plata. HOWEVER....watch out for the tourist trappers.....Remember this name. Nelson B. We were approached by this slick vendor (Nelson B) who took it upon himself to take our pictures. He is deceivi...

Caribbean's only cable car with views over a mountain with its Christ statue & Puerto Plata city.

Panoramic waterfront park next to Fort San Felipe featuring a modern amphitheater for live events.

👍👍 This park is very beautiful. There are hundreds of pigeons that can be fed just like in the Colon Park of the Colonial City. Right next to the Cathedral and an ice cream parlor worth visiting.

👍👍 Fantastic place to watch a live concert

Happening tourist stop with a high-energy pool area featuring a swim-up bar, loungers & cabanas.

Flashy attraction featuring multiple animal encounters, like swimming with sharks & dolphins.

👍👍 Great place to pass an afternoon, nice beach, good selection of restaurants and bars

👍👍 The oldest hotel in Puerto Plata, DR. Gives very romantic, old world vibes. Enjoyed passing through and taking in all the charm the area had to offer.

👍👍 Beautiful and colorful umbrella street in the middle of downtown. There are several food shops and areas to take photos. It was packed, given there were lots of cruise ships docking but overall it is well worth visiting

Spanish fort dating to the late 1500s & built to defend against pirates, with history displays.

😠 Horrible. This fake resort village keeps cruise guests on a long, winding, hot journey just to get out of the port area. We tried, halfway through to walk out a side gate but they yelled at us and we had to go the long way all the way out and back in. It added at least 30 minutes to our already hot...

👍👍 Nice church we was sitting outside in compound and the atmosphere is very good to see

Public palm-lined sandy beach used by resorts with kitesurfing schools & bar & restaurant access.

Museum with exhibits on the life & works of General Gregorio Luperón in a historic home.

👍 Beautiful beach. I give it only four stars because the last 9 km is a dirt road in bad condition. At the beach there are a few small places preparing fresh fish. It's good and cheap. The big secret is that there is yet another beach a five minute walk from Cambiaso. They call it Playita, as it is a...

👍👍 A cool sign where the malecon begins.

👍👍 This was a very interesting tour, although short. My favorite thing was learning about the wood of the barrels and the aging process. Made to accommodate a large crowd but it is a relatively short tour. There is a video based on the history of rum and Macorix. I would prefer to see more of the proce...

🫤 The first day I arrived the staff was very attentive to myself and my family at the tropical section which was where my accommodation were situated.The second day not so much not only did I observe young men and women smoking weed along several corridors were my 3 year old child would have to freque...
