WHAT YOU VISIT
Puerto Plata
Known for its sparkling beaches and rich history, Puerto Plata was discovered by Christopher Columbus in the 1490s. Columbus designed the town and established it as La Isabela, the first settlement in the Americas. Enjoy a panoramic view of Fuerte de San Felipe, built in 1540. It was the first fort in the New World, and today it anchors the city and stands as one of the oldest colonial period fortresses in the region. Puerto Plata's city center displays historic buildings, cultural museums, a seaside promenade, sparkling beaches, and plenty of restaurants and shopping.

Playa Dorada
Blessed with turquoise waters, golden sand, and endless sunshine, Playa Dorada hails as one of the region's most popular beaches. Here, you can relax and unwind, rent a sun lounger, stroll the sun soaked sand and dive into the welcoming waters.

WHAT YOU SEE ALONG THE WAY
Explore scenic Puerto Plata by motorcoach. Drive along the Malecón (waterfront) to take in San Felipe Fortress, the oldest military fortification in the Americas, built in 1564. Continue down narrow streets into the center of town to admire the white towers of San Felipe Cathedral, all the activity in Independence Square, and the charming buildings that date back to colonial times.

LUNCH
Lunch will be served at Playa Dorada Beach.
