Puerto Plata | Dominican Republican

This port was the first stop on our Caribbean cruise and it did not disappoint! This was one of the nicer cruise ports that I’ve been to with an AWESOME pool just for cruisers and shopping. We spent time at the pool and then ventured into the local area to see a few things including:

•umbrella street

•pink street

•independence square

•a Catholic Church in the square

This is a perfect, relaxing summer spot!

I love traveling!!! I feel it’s one of my favorite escapes from reality apart from reading ! Heading to Puerto Plata in December was big for me . I need some time off from my busy schedule. I needed to run away from the snow in Ohio as well 🤣. It was so beautiful out there and I would recommend it

Boat-Only Island in Dominican Republic
Most people think they know the Dominican Republic. Punta Cana. Puerto Plata. Saona Island. But there’s also Cayo Levantado. It’s a small island off Samaná that you reach by boat, not by road. There’s one main resort on the island, so the environment is controlled and quiet. No water parks.
