Barahona Malecón & Parque Central
Malecón de Barahona
The city's seaside promenade and central square, where locals stroll, fish and snack in the evening. It offers a glimpse of everyday small-town life.
Barahona is compact, and its seafront promenade (Malecón) runs along the bay. In the evening people walk, fish and drink beer, and on holidays there is music and snack stalls. The central park is surrounded by churches, banks and restaurants, and it is lively after dark. There are no major historic sights here, but it makes a pleasant evening stroll from your base in town. Try goat meat, fried fish and local coffee.
