NCL Joy May 2023

We were at DR on May 10. Our ship was suppose to dock in Puerta Plata and a ship had hit the dock. We docked at Amber Cove. We had no plans this time. I have been there many times. When you get out of the port, there are only taxis and no one selling tours. We decided to spend the day at the pool at the port. You go to the right after you exit the ship and their tours. We were the first because our ship was leaving earlier than planned. We reserved 2 chairs, umbrella, floats and WiFi for $70.  They had a waitress that came around with a drink and food menu. The Carnival Mardi Gras docked soon after. The pool filled up but it wasn’t too crowded. You could use chairs outside of Yvette VIP area. They also had water slides and zip lining. It was so convenient. We had a great day for our last port.
