Amber Cove Cruise Center, the Caribbean’s newest destination, is located in the Dominican Republic near Puerto Plata on the country’s North Coast. This part of the county is famed for being the site of Christopher Columbus’ first settlement in the New World. It is also known for its abundance of amber, a rare orange jewel stone from ancient times. Amber Cove is a brand new port created for Carnival Corp. The aim was to re-establish the Dominican Republic’s North Coast as a major cruise destination. This port with two berths offers a full range of amenities, including a water park, pools, a game area, bars, and rental bungalows. And there are a lot of opportunities for lounging and shopping. Above all, Amber Cove has access to North Coast trips as well.
The closest city to Amber Cove is Puerto Plata, the Dominican Republic’s tourism capital. Puerto Plata is brimming with adrenaline-pumping thrills as well as stress-relieving beaches. Highlights include Playa Dorada, the historic Fort San Felipe, museums, the Cable Car, water park, restaurants, cafés, and more.
