Shark Encounter & Dunn's River Falls

Enjoy a short drive in air-conditioned comfort to the world-famous Dunn’s River Falls where you'll climb 600 feet of cool refreshing water as it cascades over natural limestone terraces. Guides are provided to assist you when ascending the rushing waters as it plunges directly into the pristine Caribbean Sea. After this invigorating experience, you'll be transported to Dolphin Cove, home to a beautiful family of bottlenose dolphins, exotic birds, snakes and iguanas. You'll be escorted to the Shark’s Cove where you'll be met by our highly trained shark encounter facilitators. Here you'll participate in a 15-minute safety briefing before facing your fears and interacting with the most fascinating and fearsome of all sea creatures, the shark! See Pirates of the Shark’s Cove and the rambunctious, hilarious Shark Show. Then the Shark’s 'Victim' (you) will get a chance to touch, hold, feed and explore while swimming in the same water as these creatures. After this exciting experience, enjoy a leisurely walk through the lush tropical jungle and get an up-close experience with our beautiful and friendly birds, snakes and iguanas. Browse through the largest gift shops of any attraction in Jamaica, stocked with the widest range of dolphin souvenirs; visit our jewelry store and craft market for locally handcrafted items. Shuttle buses are available at 10-minute intervals to return you to your ship or optional shopping at your convenience. Note: Participants must be at least 8 years of age. We recommend you wear your swimsuit under comfortable clothing, water shoes to climb the falls, and bring a change of clothes and a towel. Lockers are available for rent at both Dunn’s River Falls and Dolphin Cove. This tour is not recommended for guests with heart, neck/back problems, mobility/balance problems or pregnant women.
