Join Cruise Addicts as we tour Amber Cove in the Dominican Republic. Amber Cove, Dominican Republic was a port stop during our families’ Carnival Cruise aboard the Carnival Breeze. We all really loved Amber Cove, it offered so much for families and delivered a very relaxing day for us.
Did I mention how beautiful it is here?
Amber Cove Cruise Port
Designed to serve as the gateway to one of the world’s most beautiful cruising regions, Amber Cove features dramatic architectural elements that echo the area’s storied Colonial past. The port is situated in a picturesque cove that serves as the backdrop for soaring mountains and lush tropical landscape. Its cobblestone plazas are lined with a wide variety of retail offerings, including themed restaurants and bars and a marketplace with locally sourced crafts and souvenirs, recreational amenities, and a transportation center for access to land and sea adventures.
Amber Cove also provides easy and convenient access to the nearby historic town of Puerto Plata, named by Christopher Columbus when he discovered the island in 1492. Puerto Plata is home to the first fort built by European settlers in the New World. Visitors to the city can shop in the bustling downtown area featuring numerous artist studios and rum and cigar factories or stroll along the famed Malecon, a three-mile-long open-air beach-side boardwalk dotted with bars, restaurants, and shops.
