Puerto Plata, Dominican Republic

The landscape of this Caribbean country is fascinating and diverse. Travelers will certainly be astonished wherever they look because of the region's sandy beaches, rainforests, and savannas. The picturesque Puerto Plata on the north coast has all the makings of a perfect getaway for a budget Christmas vacation.

Due to the shimmering silver hue of its coastline at dusk, Puerto Plata, which was founded in 1502, was given the name Port of Silver. Today, Puerto Plata welcomes visitors who are embarking on a different sort of journey; from the busy real world to serene, all-inclusive decadence. In addition to the magnificent beaches on the north coast of the Dominican Republic and the activities along the buzzing Malecón beachfront, there are also the historic district's majestic yet deteriorating colonial buildings and the amazing early-morning views from Mount Isabel de Torres. Especially when compared to other Caribbean locations, Puerto Plata is renowned for its beautiful resorts, many of which are all-inclusive and reasonably priced. You and your loved ones will take in lots of suns as well as some history, from Playa Dorada's broad coastline to a city center that dates back to the 16th century.
