Museo del Ámbar
The Museo del Ámbar puts a Dominican natural material at the center of a Puerto Plata visit. Its displays explain amber beyond its use as a souvenir.
Why go
Amber is one of the north coast’s distinctive materials, and this museum gives it context before you encounter it in shops. Look closely at the color and contents of the pieces on display, then compare that natural history with Puerto Plata’s maritime past at the fortress. The two stops tell different parts of the city’s story.
