During your stay in Samaná, you can have a wonderful time strolling along the bay, sunning at the beaches and enjoying the amenities of a resort. But if you want to really experience Samaná, then visit the central market. The displays are rustic yet brimming with fresh fruits and vegetables. Prominent among the offerings are pineapples, watermelons, papaya and bananas. The atmosphere bustles with activity as customers inspect the produce and bargain with the vendors.
