Other Scape Park Attractions

The Hoyo Azul Lagoon is far from the only travel-worthy attraction at Scape Park in the Dominican Republic. In fact, the park is ideal for adventurous travelers looking to dive into underground caves, explore ancient caverns, and go ziplining, before heading to the sandy shores for a spot of relaxation at the beach clubs, a dip in the ocean, or a snorkeling excursion.

Fantastic day out

Hoyo Azul & Scape Park Punta Cana, Caribbean

We (2 adults and 8yr old) had a great time here, loved the zip lines especially the water ones! Lots to do and see, it is alot of walking but all well worth it, very well organised. Pick up and drop off no problems at all.

Expensive

Rip off with the photo package...5 people charged but only 3 in the actual photos due to disabilities.

Exciting, adventurous

Amber_G, Jul 2022

So much fun! Definitely a must do when visiting the area. Side note, this park is huge and very rocky bring sneakers and water shoes!

Action and adventure.

Richard_D, Jul 2022

Great day out but lots of walking. The caves, lagoons and activities are of course worth it. But be advised you’ll sleep well when you get home! Top tip, take towels and water shoes unless you’re happy to drip dry on your trainers.

One worth doing

Barrie_M, Jul 2022

The Hoyo Azul Scape Park was awesome in general. Being able to not only see these natural wonders but also play in them was awesome. It's definitely a good excursion for anyone who likes adventure. Be sure you like to hike and be active though as it's a workout.

Very open and beautiful...

Erin_H, Jul 2022

Very open and beautiful be warn a lot of people walking at least 10 miles around the whole park . Keep hydrated

Amazing

Cecilia_H, Jul 2022

The nature was amazing and it was so many fun things to do. We loved the caves, swimming in the water and the zip lines.

Great family day

Tony_H, Jul 2022

We had a blast and loved everything that was offered. Just a heads up, we walked over 9 miles why we were there. You really need to be in decent shape for lots of inclines. The zip line was great, there is one area you have to crawl through and another you have to literally climb up a rock wall. Just want everyone to know what to expect.

Fun in the sun

Jiggy_P, Jun 2022

A lot of walking be prepared! Zip lines were fun especially the water ones, small sections to see monkey and parrots snakes etc. kids had a blast

Great Time for Active Couples or Families

Raymond_D, Jun 2022

We had a great time! A couple of things you should know before you go. The park is massive and there is a lot of walking. WEAR COMFORTABLE WATER SHOES! The Zip line was awesome, but you need to be good physical shape - it involves a lot of hiking up the side of a mountain.

Nice park

mariah_T, Jun 2022

It was a nice experience, the park is very big. Make sure you bring watershoes and some cash. The tour guid will just drop you off and picks you up at 5

Fun LONG day

LoriLoperfito, Jun 2022

Amazing day but very long. Lots of things to do here and the kids (21yr olds 😂) had fun. Make sure you wear closed toe shoes for all the walking on small pebbles to reach each different excursion.
