Scape Park Cap Cana: The Complete 2026 Guide
Hoyo Azul, ziplines, caves and an iguana sanctuary in one Cap Cana adventure park. The honest planning guide — what's worth it and how to do it properly.
What Scape Park actually is
A 60-acre eco-adventure park inside the Cap Cana resort enclave, 10 minutes from any Cap Cana hotel and 25 minutes from Bávaro. The park is built around a natural cliff system and an underground cave network, with the famous Hoyo Azul cenote at its centre. Open daily 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Hoyo Azul — the headline
A 14 m-deep cliffside cenote at the base of a sheer limestone wall, with water so blue it doesn't look real. A short forested walk gets you there. You can swim (lifejackets provided), or just sit on the wooden deck for photos. The blue is at its most surreal between 11 a.m. and 1 p.m. when the sun hits the water directly.
Ziplines
Twelve ziplines run through the jungle canopy, including a long one over Hoyo Azul itself. Minimum age 8, maximum weight ~120 kg. Roughly 90 minutes for the full circuit. Excellent guides, very safe gear.
Cave tour (Cueva de las Maravillas style, but free)
A walk through an underground Taíno cave system with petroglyphs, stalactites and natural light wells. Cool, shaded, fascinating — and a welcome break from the sun.
Iguana sanctuary
Free with park entry. A sanctuary for the endangered Ricord's iguana and the rhinoceros iguana, both native to Hispaniola. Quick visit, photogenic, good for kids.
Other activities
Bungee swings, Power Fan, the Iguabonita cave, a beach club, and a couple of decent restaurants. The Sky Power Jump is a 15 m freefall onto a soft pad — terrifying and brilliant.
Tickets — what to actually buy
The base ticket gets you Hoyo Azul, the iguana sanctuary, the cave and the iguana garden. Add-ons (ziplines, bungee, swing) are sold separately. Most travellers should buy the Hoyo Azul + ziplines combo. Total budget: US$120–180 per adult including transfer.
What to bring
Swimsuit, towel, reef-safe sunscreen, water shoes (some surfaces are slippery), a small dry bag for phones, and a GoPro if you have one. Lockers available.
Best time to go
Arrive at opening (9 a.m.) — fewer crowds, cooler temperatures, sun not yet harsh. Hoyo Azul first, ziplines second, lunch, then caves and iguana sanctuary in the afternoon.

Frequently asked questions
Yes — especially Hoyo Azul. It's the closest cenote to Cap Cana, the blue is genuinely surreal, and the park is well-run and safe. The standout half-day in Cap Cana.
