Thankfully, attempt 2 passed very benignly, and we arrived
in the Dominican
Republic in rather better shape. We were moored up in a strange marina called Ocean World, that was virtually deserted, and part of a casino and sea-life complex. The facilities and service proved to be first rate, and so we spent a couple of days touring around the local town of Puerto Plata. Up until now, we had been in the relatively wealthy Eastern Caribbean, however, the Dominican Republic proved to be the start of a rather poorer Caribbean as you can see from the photos below. |
