Amber Cove (Dominican Republic) Review

Located in Puerto Plata, Dominican Republic, Amber Cove is still a relatively new port, but offers just as much as the ones that have been around for many years.  

On our stop at Amber Cove, we decided to stay close to the ship, as there was enough to do to keep us occupied for hours. Just within walking distance of the ship, we found a spot where we were able to enjoy the pool, eat some local food, and do some ziplining! With the entrance being free, we were able to go on the zipline as many times as we liked, eat a nice sized lunch, and enjoy a couple adult beverages for under $75 total for 3 people.  

We then walked around the port, learning about the history of Puerto Plata. Afterwards we headed to the shopping area, located within walking distance. The shops at the port were all nice, clean, and reasonably priced. The vendors were pleasant, and did get too pushy trying to make a sell. Other passengers on our cruise tried the beach horseback riding, and Damajagua Falls excursions. Each got good reviews.  

Our favorite part about our stop at Amber Cove: Unlimited Ziplining, for only $20 per adult, $10 per child.
