Damajagua Waterfalls Excursion in the Dominican Republic

The Damajagua Waterfalls Adventure is one exhilarating eco-adventure not to be missed in the Dominican Republic! Nestled in the rolling hills of the Northern Corridor mountain range lays a treasure you won't find anywhere else in the world.

The adventure begins outside the main gates of the Amber Cove Cruise Center where you're welcomed and greeted by the friendly staff who will be escorting you on the tour. A narrated, countryside drive will take you to the Damajagua "base camp" located within a tropical forest. Immersed in the beautiful landscape of the "Cordillera Central" (mountain range), the "Salto de la Damajagua" and its 27 lagoons are part of the system of a protected area of the Dominican Republic. This natural monument of the Damajagua River is composed of 27 bodies of water of various sizes.

Here, you will have time to use the facilities before hearing important rules and safety instructions. You'll be provided with your helmet, life jacket, and a bottle of water. Then you are on your way uphill for approximately 45 minutes to the first waterfall. Official park guides are located at each fall, slide, or jump and climb. Although this tour does include jumps of up to 25 feet, there are paths at some of the highest jumps where you can choose to walk around.

You'll return to the base camp by jumping into a series of natural pools and sliding down cascades that fall over natural rock formations - carved from centuries of rushing water.

On the return to the cruise center, you will enjoy lively, typical music as you sip on your rum punch and enjoy the fresh fruit provided by your guide.
