Punta Cana Adventure: Bavaro Park Buggy Ride, Mega Splash Zipline & Blue Lagoon
A mix of off-road tempo, high wire thrills and a cool cenote finish—Bavaro Adventure Park packages buggy rides, an abandoned-mine circuit, a six-line Mega Splash zipline and a waterfall pool into one energetic day near Punta Cana.
The Experience
Before You Go
Wear closed sport shoes
Closed-toe shoes are mandatory for buggy and zipline activities—flip-flops are only allowed after the activities are finished.
Bring a change of clothes
The Mega Splash lands in water and the waterfall pool is a swim opportunity—pack a towel and a dry set for the ride home.
Hydrate before you start
Carry 1–2 L of water; tropical heat and adrenaline make dehydration easy, especially on the buggy route.
Confirm your pickup time
Transfers cover Punta Cana/Bávaro hotels but pickup times are confirmed by the supplier—be ready 10–15 minutes early.
Local Knowledge
Hidden Gems
- •Dominican Village tastings—small-batch mamajuana and local cacao samples
- •A quiet shallow ledge at the Blue Lagoon good for photos and cooling off away from the main pool
Wildlife
- •Green heron
- •Iguanas sunning on rocks
Conservation Note
The park relies on managed pathways and restricted access to sensitive cenote edges; visitors are asked to use biodegradable sunscreen to protect karst aquifers.
The park’s abandoned mine circuit reflects small-scale mineral extraction that occurred in parts of eastern Hispaniola before coastal tourism transformed the economy.
