Life is a Carnival!

As we prepare to welcome Carnival Cruise Lines to their brand new port of call at Amber Cove this October we thought we'd share with cruise ship passengers some of the incredible, unmissable adventure tours  Puerto Plata and the north coast of the Dominican Republic have to offer. Here's our top 10 favorite Iguana Mama Adventure tours.

Number 1. 27 Water Falls of Damajagua

'God's own Water Park' is right. Hike, jump and slide these incredible waterfalls. Recent safety improvements make this THE  'must do' trip for adventure seekers.

2. White Water Rafting in Jarabacoa

Rafting on a Caribbean island? Oh Yes! Our trips run near Jarabacoa, nestled in the 'Dominican Alps'. Unforgettable stuff.

Number 3. Learn to surf!

Something you've always wanted to try, right? Well now you can at our surf school located just a 15 minute drive from Amber Cove. Lessons include transport, one hour of tuition, board hire, lycra and reef shoes. 

Number 4. Farm Tour and Lazy Float

This is one of our favorites for families and those looking for a very chilled experience. Learn, float, eat and enjoy.

5.  Magic Mushroom Canyoning Trip

For the adrenaline junkies out there. An extreme, totally off the beaten path experience. Enjoy rappels, jumps and hiking in an unspoiled paradise.

Number 6. Family Kayak Experience

Enjoy the sensation of freedom and tranquility as you paddle through our magnificent green & blue landscape.

Number 7. Mt. Isabel de Torres hike

Serious about hiking? Then this one's for you. Hike 3 hours up to 2700 feet to enjoy the cool breeze and spectacular views of Puerto Plata below. 

Number 8. Mountain Biking

All off road, this moderate ride is a great way to see the countryside and ends with a refreshing swim in the beautiful, cooling Jamao River. 

Number 9. El Choco Park Hike

An easy hike for all ages. See how the locals live off the land, taste the coffee and fruits right off the trees. Then enjoy an unforgettable dip in the crystal clear waters of one of the parks' many caves.

10. Just want to chill? Sosua Beach Day

OK we get it, adventures and too much exercise aren't for everyone! Voted one of the best beaches in the world many times over. Loungers, lunch and drinks included. Enjoy!
