Our first port stop on my 7-day Caribbean cruise aboard the Norwegian Jade was Puerto Plata, Dominican Republic, and even with just a few hours off the ship — we had an amazing time!
We spent our day at Taino Bay, and let me tell you... if you don’t have an excursion planned, this place still has plenty to do:
🌴 Beach vibes
🍹 Bars & restaurants
🏊 Pools & lounging areas
Whether you’re into relaxing or exploring, Taino Bay is a great stop for NCL cruisers.
📍Next port: Tortola, BVI — that video’s coming soon, so stay tuned!
