Amber Cove Shore Excursions FAQs

Questions we have recently been asked about our Amber Cove shore excursions:

Where is Amber Cove cruise terminal?

The Amber Cove cruise terminal is about 20 minutes' drive west of Puerto Plata on the north coast of Puerto Plata. Cocotours has been based in Puerto Plata for over 20 years so we're ideally qualified to offer you private shore excursions from Amber Cove.

Where do I meet your guide and driver for my Amber Cove shore excursion?

We pick you up from the main gate, close to the main road, which is just a stone's throw from the port's own parking area.
