The town plaza is located in front of the municipal building, with an area of one hectare. It has a wide playground equipped with a tennis court, children’s park, and mini forest that serves as a potential tourist spot and recreation center.

The Municipal Park was constructed from the cash prize Bacarra received during the Search for the Most Number of Balikbayan in the 70s. Its improvement is one of the priority projects of the present administration.
