Fly the Caribbean’s Longest Ziplines: 30-Minute Punta Cana Jungle Zipline
Race a friend across parallel cables high above a tropical canopy on some of the Caribbean’s longest ziplines. This 30-minute Punta Cana adventure pairs quick aerial thrills with expert-guided safety briefings and included transfers.
The Experience
Before You Go
Wear secure shoes
Closed-toe athletic shoes with good grip keep your feet stable during takeoff and landing sequences.
Hydrate before you go
Drink water ahead of time—operators provide bottled water but starting hydrated reduces dizziness on the lines.
Avoid loose clothing and accessories
Remove scarves, wide hats and unsecured jewelry; zipline harnesses catch loose items and winds amplify flapping fabric.
Choose morning slots
Mornings usually have lighter winds and cooler temperatures, improving comfort and visibility.

Punta Cana’s tourism boom began in the late 20th century, transforming coastal farmland into resort corridors while Taíno place names and coastal fishing traditions remain part of the local identity.
