Bavaro Adventure Park: Buggy Tour, Mega Splash Zipline & Waterfall Pool Experience
Spend a full day at Bavaro Adventure Park blending self-drive dune buggies, a Mega Splash zipline landing, and a cooling waterfall pool. Expect forested tracks, an abandoned-mine circuit, cultural demos and a typical Dominican lunch.
The Experience
Before You Go
Closed-toe shoes only
Wear sturdy sneakers or trail shoes — flip-flops aren’t allowed during activities and the mine track is rocky.
Bring swimwear and a towel
The waterfall pool and Mega Splash landing are highlights—pack a swimsuit and quick-dry towel to change into right after.
Hydrate and time it right
Morning departures are cooler and dust is lighter; bring water and rehydrate after the buggy leg and zipline.
Secure valuables
Personal items aren’t allowed on rides—use on-site lockers to avoid damage or loss.
Local Knowledge
Hidden Gems

Wildlife

Conservation Note
The park encourages staying on marked trails and avoiding single-use plastics; reef and freshwater protection are local priorities—don’t feed wildlife or disturb vegetation.
Eastern Dominican Republic grew into a tourism hub in the late 20th century; the park layers entertainment over older agricultural and small-scale mining landscapes.
