Now each excursion guide is highly trained and certified in both first aid and CPR. They are trained to assure that you will have a safe and fun time! There is a guide at each of the Damajugua waterfalls to help you to climb up against the water like a salmon going up-stream. Each small waterfall is different; some have natural steps and others have a wood ladder to make easier to the to the top. You do not have to climb the 27 waterfall, go on your own pace, you can do 7, 12 or all 27 waterfalls. If climbing the falls is a fun experience, the way back down is a pure blast! Jump from the rocks into the pool or use the natural toboggan like water slides to get down; the experienced local guides will tell you which is the best option in each case, always considering your safety. This is great fun for young visitors and those young at heart. Once at the base camp you have time to relax, use the facilities or even to buy a delicious buffet lunch at the local restaurant (cost not included). On the way back to the cruise terminal, your Damajugua waterfalls shore excursion guide will take you through the Maimon Lands; this protected area is well-known due its uniquely, cultural and historical background. After this exciting Amber Cove Damajugua Park Waterfalls Excursion, you will be back on your Amber Cove cruise terminal in time to get back on board your cruise ship.
