Take an unforgettable trip to nature's own perfect water park!
Just a short 25 minute drive from Amber Cove and approximately 45 minutes from Taino Bay this trip is undoubtedly one of the top ten things to do in Puerto Plata and is arguably, the Dominican Republic’s NUMBER ONE attraction for adventure seekers!
Choose between 2 exciting options: 7 Falls or the 7 Falls + 5 Zip Lines combo!
We are locally based with over 28 years of experience taking people to Damajagua and, as the Dominican Republic's first licensed Adventure Tour Operator, Iguana Mama feels uniquely qualified to offer you an unrivaled experience.
Minimum age to participate at Damajagua is 8 years old.
Damajagua 7 Waterfalls - $85 per person
About a 30 minute hike up to the 7th Fall where you start to jump, slide and swim your way down to the bottom and yes, unlike the cruise lines, we let you jump if you want to. We never ask you to do anything you aren't comfortable with and, there is always another way down but, you'd be missing out on the biggest thrills.
(price includes admission fee, safety equipment, taxes, experienced guides, air-conditioned transportation, all-you-can-eat Dominican lunch buffet, beverages, local rum drinks after the activity, )
DOUBLE THE RUSH BY ADDING ZIP LINES TO YOUR DAMAJAGUA WATERFALL ADVENTURE
Damajagua 7 Waterfalls + 5 Zip Lines & 2 Suspension Bridges $139 per person
A slightly challenging 60 minute uphill hike through a beautiful jungle landscape gets us to the 12th fall where the real fun begins! Experience the rush of 5 exciting zip lines plus 2 suspension bridges to get down to the 7th fall. Here you'll switch to cascading down-river as you jump, slide and swim your way through a series of spectacular waterfalls and canyons. An experience you won't soon forget.
IMPORTANT! If you are docking at Taino Bay please only book this option if your ship is in port for 8 hours or more!

PLEASE NOTE: While the Iguana Mama Damajagua Waterfalls shore excursion is capped at 20 people per bus, the waterfall activity itself is NOT always a small group experience. Damajagua Waterfalls is a public national park that welcomes visitors from many various local groups and citizens, tour operators, hotels, Airbnbs, and cruise ships visiting Puerto Plata. Everyone is welcome.
At the park, no one is permitted up the mountain without a National Park Guide and, because the Guide Association has a limited number of certified guides, they determine group sizes based on the number of people at the park any given day. No tour operator has control over group sizes, guide assignments or park capacity during the activity.
Damajagua is the single most popular tour in the Dominican Republic. On busy days, the park may receive more than 1,000 visitors, which can result in congestion and waiting times. While our guides do their best to move you through the lines, (your Iguana Mama Guide stays with you throughout the tour), this excursion is not fully “controlled by us” but rather an excursion that guarantees our small group transportation and exceptional personalized service before, during and after the falls activity.
