Excursion to Puerto Plata.
When choosing where to go on an excursion from Cabarete, the first thing you should choose is an excursion to Puerto Plata.
The city of Puerto Plata is called the capital of the northern region of the Dominican Republic.
It is located less than an hour's drive from Cabarete and has a rich history.
It was on this coast that the great navigator Columbus first landed many years ago, and it was from this place that the history of the New World began.
The Puerto Plata excursion will allow you to see the everyday life of Latin American cities.
San Felipe de Puerto Plata is the second most popular city among tourists, after Punta Cana, coming to the Dominican Republic.
The name of the city, which translates as a silver port, was given by Christopher Columbus, who sailed past and noticed how the palm trees seemed to turn silver in the moonlight.
The city of Puerto Plata is located on the northern coast of the Dominican Republic, which is also called the amber coast.
This coast received such a romantic name due to the large deposits of amber in the mountainous northern regions of the country.
