Almost all of the shops, restaurants and scenery in Samaná are centered along Avenida La Marina and the bay. Walk a block or two off this promenade and the neighborhoods quickly change. A pleasant exception is this town square. The grounds are well manicured. Lighting is ample. In the center is an octagon-shaped gazebo crowned with a gorgeous religious painting. This is a quiet place to escape other tourists while being sheltered from the Caribbean sun.
