Located at the edge of Puerto Plata bay
Historical fort located by the main bay of Puerto Plata. The smell of diesel exhaust is pervasive since it's right next to the main electric generator for the city, which burns diesel. There are many local vendors who are quite persistent at trying to sell you goods at tourist prices. In front of the fort is a nice grassy area that's good for a picnic overlooking the water.
