Larimar and amber are two natural jewels from the Dominican Republic that people colloquially know as the blue stone or the love stone, the first, and the good luck gem, the second.
The larimar was discovered when workers from the province of Barahona saw that strange blue stones were washed into the sea by the rivers.
Amber is a fossilized resin that has flowed over 60 million years ago from the carob trees planted in the vast fields of Santiago and Puerto Plata.

Stop 6
San Felipe Fortress was built by the Spanish in the 16th century to defend the north coast of the country from the English and Dutch, as well as French pirates in search of the abundant gold and silver in the area. It is considered one of the most important colonial military structures in the Caribbean, it was completed in 1577 and later served as a prison until the years of the dictator Trujillo. Today it is a museum that exhibits the original cannons facing the Atlantic, ancient weapons, and numerous secret chambers. It offers spectacular views over the coast of Puerto Plata and watching the sunset from the foot of the fortress, next to La Puntilla park, is a daily activity for Puerto Plata residents.
