The eastern side of the Placencia Peninsula is generally a
long expanse of white sand beach; the western side is bounded by a long
narrow north-south trending bay of the Caribbean Sea.
The largest community on the peninsula
is the Village of Placencia,
situated at the extreme southern tip of the peninsula. The village is
home to 458 permanent residents according to the 2000 census.
Placencia was the filming site for the finale of VH1's
reality series the Flavor of Love 2.
