Cruise to Saona Island from Juan Dolio on a day trip. Swim in a natural pool, relax on the beach, enjoy a buffet lunch, and sip on unlimited drinks from the open bar.

PRICE: $130
per person

 

Begin your journey with a convenient hotel pickup, followed by a scenic 1.5-hour transfer via air‑conditioned coach to the speedboat departure point. Arrive at the coastal port, board a fast speedboat, and feel the refreshing Caribbean breeze as you cruise toward Saona Island.

Mid‑morning, the tour halts at a fascinating natural pool—a shallow (knee‑to‑waist deep) coral-enclosed spot about 200–300 meters from shore. Wade in clear turquoise waters, snap photos, sip on refreshments from the open bar, and admire the unique geology of the submerged coral shelf.

Next, continue by catamaran to Saona Island, where approximately 2 hours of leisure await. Relax on white sandy beaches, swim in pristine waters, lounge under the sun, or stroll through jungle-shaded sections. Mingle to upbeat live music on deck—or join a dance party—as the boat shuttles back.

Enjoy a buffet lunch on Saona Island featuring Dominican and international dishes such as rice, pasta, chicken, pork, salads, and fresh fruit. The buffet is complemented by an open bar aboard the catamaran with unlimited beers, rum, soft drinks, and water included.

Guided by multilingual live tour guides, the experience is informative and accommodating—guides speak Spanish, English, French, German, Italian (and in some listings, Russian). They’ll share interesting facts about the region and island, while coordinating every step from embarkation to return.
