Puerto Plata awaits you! The Bride of the Atlantic, now closer than ever

We have news that will make you dream of golden sand and crystal-clear waters! Starting January 13, 2026, exploring the wonders of Puerto Plata, the jewel of our north coast, will be much easier for travelers from all over the American continent.

Thanks to the new route announced by our partner, Copa Airlines, the connection to this Dominican paradise is strengthened, opening a new direct air bridge from the Hub of the Americas® in Panama.

A Treasure to Discover

Affectionately known as "The Bride of the Atlantic," Puerto Plata is a province that has it all. It was here that tourism in the Dominican Republic began to flourish, and it's not hard to see why. Its landscapes combine imposing green mountains with miles of spectacular beaches.

But Puerto Plata is much more than sun and sand. It is a vibrant destination with an unparalleled cultural richness:

• Living history: Stroll through its historic center and admire the Victorian architecture that adorns its colorful streets.
• A taste to fall in love with: Delight your palate with a unique gastronomy, a delicious fusion of Taíno, African, and Spanish influences that you will find in every dish.
• Limitless adventure: Feel the adrenaline rushing down the famous 27 Charcos de Damajagua, an aquatic experience you won't forget.
• Authentic culture: Learn to dance merengue with local musicians, visit rural communities to experience the warmth of our people, or explore the passion for baseball at the museum of the great Bartolo Colón.

A Direct Connection to Adventure

With this new flight, Copa Airlines will operate three weekly frequencies (Tuesdays, Fridays, and Sundays), making planning your getaway convenient and flexible.

This route makes Puerto Plata the airline's fourth destination in the country, joining Santo Domingo, Punta Cana, and Santiago de los Caballeros. This not only demonstrates confidence in our country's potential but also consolidates the Dominican Republic as the best-connected and most exciting destination in the Caribbean.
