Catalina Island Diving Experience
Description
Between 7 and 8 am, we'll pick you up from your hotel in Punta Cana to take you to the port of La Romana. There, we'll board a boat and sail to the first dive site of Catalina Island. Ready for an incredible underwater adventure?
We'll first arrive at La Pared, a famous underwater coral wall 100 meters (328 feet) deep. During this 50-minute dive, we'll go down to 18 meters (60 feet) to admire the biodiversity of this place and the animals that can be found there, such as barracudas, hawksbill turtles, and seahorses.
Then, it's time for our second dive, so we'll board the boat again to go to the Aquarium. The dive will be 50 minutes long again, plenty of time to fully enjoy the rich wildlife here, full of lionfish, frogfish, balloonfish, surgeonfish, and butterflyfish!
Next, we'll head to Catalina Island beach to refuel with a delicious buffet lunch consisting of chicken, pork chops, beans, rice, salad, and assorted beverages. Also, if you wish, you can put on some snorkeling gear to continue exploring the waters of the Caribbean Sea after lunch.
Lastly, between 3 and 3:30 pm, we'll drop you back at your hotel.
