I told you I was going all-inclusive at some point, didn’t I?
Puerto Plata, on DR’s north coast, is the country’s oldest resort. There is a real town here, with some significant history. But up here, on the sandy but windy Playa Dorada, it’s all about the AI meal plan.
I hope to show you a bit of the actual town and its surroundings later in the trip. It would be better to look at something of substance than flog to death the tired old cliches of the pure beach holiday, like the whole blue sky, blue sea, white sand thing…
…the megaresort thing where you eat as much as you want…
…and drink as much as you want …
…the sun-kissed palm-fringed beach walk along the deep-blue Caribbean Sea…
…before indulging in free booze again…
No, it would be wrong to post all of that. It – just – isn’t – right to say it.
It’s not right.
Puerto Plata isn’t on the Caribbean Sea. It’s on the Atlantic side.
