Ocean World at Cofresí from the Puerto Plata cruise port

🚕 about 15 minutes from the terminal by taxi⏱️ plan 4 h+

Marine park on the coast west of town with dolphin, sea lion and shark programmes; the beach at Cofresí is next door. From Amber Cove it is only a few minutes away.

How much time do you need?

Plan 4 hours for the whole trip, travel from and back to the ship included. Add a safety margin of about an hour and a half before your ship leaves: you want a port stop of at least 5.5 hours to do this without stress. Your ship's all-aboard time is what counts.
