PRICE: $1,200
per person

 

Begin your adventure with a pickup from your hotel in Punta Cana. Head to Bayahibe, where you’ll board a speedboat or fast boat for the journey to Saona Island.

Make a leisurely stop at the Blue Lagoon, a beautiful sandbar in the middle of the Caribbean Sea. Spend about 40 minutes relaxing, swimming, snapping photos, and enjoying the gentle waters. Close by, there is also a sea star sanctuary, where you might spot colorful starfish in shallow waters.

After these magical stops, arrive at Saona Island, where you have about 2 hours and 45 minutes of free time to explore this tropical paradise. Think golden beaches lined with coconut palms, coral reefs just offshore, and crystal-clear waters perfect for swimming or simply relaxing on the sand under the warm sun.

At about 1:00 PM, gather for a buffet lunch at Palmera Turística beach. The lunch includes pasta, salads, rice, and typical Dominican cuisine. As you eat, soak in the scenery and relax with the sound of waves.

After lunch, begin the return trip by catamaran, featuring a festive atmosphere with music, entertainment, and an open bar with soft drinks. Finally, return to Bayahibe port and then back to your hotel, arriving in the evening after a full, unforgettable day of sights, sand, and sea.
