It is the most important city on the north coast in the Dominican Republic, about 180 km from the capital, offers super beautiful beaches and paradisiacal green paradises that are complemented by attractive routes to other places.
This beautiful place name came from “It seems silver,” thought Christopher Columbus, when he passed near a beautiful bay that, located at the foot of a mountain, allowed him to see the impressive landscape of the place. He then named that landscape as Puerto Plata and since then one of the paradisiacal sites of the insular Caribbean has been identified.
