Enjoy the perfect half-day combination of culture and relaxation with our Puerto Plata City Tour and Beach Break. We start the day by exploring the historical and vibrant heart of the city. You will visit the iconic Central Park (Parque Independencia), see the imposing Cathedral, and take incredible photos at the most famous and colorful alleys: Umbrella Street and Paseo de Doña Blanca (the pink street). Enjoy a scenic drive along the Malecon (oceanfront boulevard) with a photostop at the historic 16th-century Fortaleza San Felipe.
After immersing yourself in the local Dominican culture and history, it’s time to unwind. We will take you to a beautiful local Puerto Plata beach where you can swim in the warm Atlantic waters, sunbathe on the golden sand, or simply relax with a tropical drink. This tour is the ideal way to see the city's highlights and still have plenty of time to chill by the ocean.
