Discover the beauty of the Amber Cove Puerto Plata rainforest and climb up the Damajagua waterfalls and then jump and slide your way back down! Dive into pristine waters with your friendly local Amber Cove cruise excursion guides.
Your adventure begins when you meet your English speaking guide outside your Amber Cove cruise terminal in Puerto Plata, Dominican Republic. Your English speaking shore excursion guide will help you aboard the transportation for a short 20-minute ride through the countryside of Puerto Plata to the Damajagua Waterfalls. Along the way, they will give you info about what you can expect to see and do. Note: the transport will either be a van or minibus depending on the size of your group.
The "27 Charcos" as the locals called it, is an eco-tourism paradise in Damajagua! 27 waterfalls with their 27 natural pools, some natural smooth water slides carved out of the limestone by the force of the water and amazing rainforest trails. You will arrive at the base camp where your guide will provide you with a helmet and life jacket. Your guide will give you a brief explanation of the safety rules and then you are ready for the adventure called Amber Cove Damajagua Park Waterfalls Excursion.
Peace Corps volunteer, Joe Kennedy (great nephew to president JFK) was instrumental in setting up the facilities, visitor center, arranging the training, and safety standards. Now each excursion guide is highly trained and certified in both first aid and CPR. They are trained to assure that you will have a safe and fun time!
There is a guide at each of the Damajagua waterfalls to help you to climb up against the water like a salmon going upstream. Each small waterfall is different; some have natural steps and others have a wood ladder to make easier to the to the top. In this Damajagua Park adventure, you will be able to jump and climb a maximum of 12 of the waterfalls.
If climbing the falls is a fun experience, the way back down is a pure blast! Jump from the rocks into the pool or use the natural toboggan like water slides to get down; the experienced local guides will tell you which is the best option in each case, always considering your safety. This is great fun for young visitors and those young at heart.
Once at the base camp, you have time to relax, use the facilities or even to buy a delicious buffet lunch at the local restaurant (cost not included). On the way back to the cruise terminal, your Damajagua waterfalls shore excursion guide will take you through the Maimon Lands; this protected area is well-known due to its unique, cultural and historical background.
After this exciting Amber Cove Damajagua Park Waterfalls Excursion, you will be back on your Amber Cove cruise terminal in time to get back on board your cruise ship.
