In recent days a number of earthquakes were felt in the Puerto Plata region.
The epic centers
January 24 at 4.40 PM, Tuesday afternoon the last earthquake with a magnitude of 5.1 on the Richter scale was felt in Sosúa.
The epicenter was located in Nagua.
In Sosúa we felt an earthquake twice in a row that lasted a few seconds.
In the pool you could see some waves in the water.
The kids leaving school at that time panicked an ran out to the street.
But for the rest everybody stayed calm and there is no damage found.
So no damage to homes, buildings, furniture etc.
Many tourists in Casa Marina and Don Andres said they thought it was a nice experience.
It wobbled a bit and the water rippled, no reason to worry.
