Saona Island Catamaran Cruise
Saona Island Catamaran Cruise
After picking you up from your hotel in Juan Dolio, we'll head to the port of Bayahibe, where we'll board the boat or catamaran at 9:30 am. We'll sail the crystal clear Caribbean waters towards Saona Island. Did you know that some scenes from Pirates of the Caribbean were filmed here?
During the hour and a half catamaran cruise, you'll enjoy stunning sea views while sunbathing on deck and dancing to Dominican music. Along the way, we'll stop at Blue Lagoon, a natural pool in the middle of the sea. This incredible sandbank is home to dozens of starfish, and you can swim with them!
When we reach Saona Island, we'll be welcomed by the sight of paradise beaches full of coconut trees. After a refreshing dip, we'll renew our energy with a typical Dominican lunch. Rice, meat, fresh fish, salad and tropical fruits - delicious!
In the afternoon, you'll have three hours of free time to walk along Las Palmillas beach, swim in the sea, relax on the sand... it's up to you!
At 2:30 pm, we'll return to the catamaran and start the return trip to the port of Bayahibe. During the cruise, we'll dance bachata, merengue and other Caribbean rhythms, the perfect end to an unforgettable day!
Once at the pier, we'll take back you to the hotels in Juan Dolio, where we'll arrive eight hours after the start of the tour.
