San Felipe de Puerto Plata and Amber Cove, a Carnival Cruise Port
I spent only a few hours here but made the best of the situation by hiring a taxi tour guide who took me and a friend into Puerto Plata. Don't stay in Amber Cove, you'll miss out on all the fun! I have to come back to fully experience the nightlife. Hell, I just need to come back to fully experience the D.R. If you have time, go to the rum factory, the chocolate factory, and bathe in those Caribbean waters. Mas Macorix por favor!

Carnival Cruise Lines: My First (and Last) Time Cruising
To boot, only having a pair of hours to explore a place isn't really what I'm trying to do. When we docked at Grand Turk Island (Cockburn Town), all I could see was a block of overpriced shops. BORING. It was so hot we spent our time beneath a canopy. By the time we went to check out the taxis, we didn't have enough time to tour the rest of the town.

Cruising 101: What You Should Know Before You Book Your First Cruise
On the Carnival Victory, the pool was the size of an inflatable backyard pool. It had one waterslide which was broken for most of the trip. There's a gym, I guess. If you like to do sing-a-longs, I guess you'd be alright.
