Dominican Republic Zipline & 27 Waterfalls Damajagua Amber Cove Carnival Shore Excursion
This video features the waterfall portion of the Carnival Cruise Shore Excursion for “Zipline & 27 Waterfalls Combo” for the Amber Cove port in Puerto Plata Dominican Republic operated by Mega Adventures. See my other video for the Zipline.
If you love adventure this is one of the top 10 things to do in Puerto Plata Dominican Republic.
We booked this excursion through Carnival, however Carnival does not allow any jumping from the falls, only sliding. If you wish to jump from the Damajagua waterfalls you would need to book this excursion on your own. The company that contracted with Carnival was Mega Adventures. They have the excursion listed on their website. They were great and if I visit this port again I would book through them so I could JUMP!
This excursion was great. We boarded mega trucks and on the way to the waterfalls we got to see parts of the Dominican Republic.
It’s important to read all of the details on the excursion. You should make sure the activity level of the excursion is a good fit for you. There is a 45 minute hike up to the falls with some steep sections and some steep stair sections down.
Bring a good pair of water shoes that you can also complete the hike in.
Bring a towel to leave in the bus. I was still wet when we got to the Zipline.
There are lockers there you can rent but our tour guide has us leave all our belongings in the bus with the driver.
Highly recommend this shore excursion!

We had so much on this excursion. Definitely recommend it.
We went on the Buggy and 9 waterfalls. It was amazing.

I debated doing the buggy. I might have to try that one next time.
Reviews on the Carnival website mention jumping off the platforms. Did they give a reason why it was not allowed?

It didn't say specifically, but my guess is they think it could potentially be a liability issue. I asked our guide and he said anything booked through the ship only allowed sliding.
Do you need to be a good swimmer to do this excursion?

You do go underwater each time you slide or jump, so I would make sure you are ok with that, but the lifejacket, which everyone is required to wear, pretty much pulls you back up to the surface. Many of the places you can actually touch the bottom and stand, it is just easier to wade through the water. They always had staff members at the top and bottom of each slide or jump to help you if needed.
do you recommend this excursion for a person that can't swim?

You are required to wear a life jacket and there were always staff members nearby. We did have a person in our group who was terrified of water and he did fine. You do go underwater each time you slide or jump, so I would make sure they are ok with that, but the lifejacket pretty much pulls you back up to the surface and in many of the places you can actually touch the bottom and stand.
