KatieMcGee Posted July 26, 2022 #1 Share Posted July 26, 2022 Has anyone sailed on the Mardi Gras ship to Amber Cove, Puerto Plata? If so, what beach(es) are the best to go to? Is a taxi needed to go to the beach(es)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare ninjacat123 Posted July 26, 2022 #2 Share Posted July 26, 2022 I have sailed on other Carnival ships to Amber Cove. Nice port with a big swimming pool to lounge around. The beach there is not really accessible. To get to Puerto Plata you would need to book a taxi or book an excursion for some beach time. I would also check out the Port of Call boards here on CC for more info. Hope that helps! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seekatz Posted July 26, 2022 #3 Share Posted July 26, 2022 Really enjoyed on our visit pre COVID visit. They had the large pool as the previous poster mentioned and a lazy river as well as other things to do, like zip line. Tons of chairs and just a nice place to relax, they had drink servers available but no vendors as its a private area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots of fun, lots of fish to see, lots of rum punch. If you decide not to do beach time, this is a great alternative!

Near the Aquarium or Ocean World I have heard is a good beach with restaurants. Don't know cost of taxi.
