In the 17th century, Placencia was settled by English Puritanism, originally from Nova Scotia and Providence Island. This settlement died out during the Spanish-American wars of independence in the 1820s. The Placencia Peninsula was resettled in the late 1800s by several families, and the area prospered rapidly from then on, earning its livelihood from the sea. Placencia is renowned for its fishing, diving, and snorkelling. It is also famous for its laid-back, no-shoe ambience and welcoming atmosphere.
