Full description
Catalina island, located South of La Romana city, is one of the best known Dominican islands and is especially famous as the perfect place for snorkeling enthusiasts!
Starting early in the morning a transfer will take us to the Bayahibe marina, where we will be welcomed aboard a catamaran. The catamaran sets sail at 9 AM and so we begin our beautiful adventure. On our way to Catalina island we will pass by the Chavon river which gained its fame after being the filming site of several prominent blockbusters, such as ‘Apocalypse Now’, ‘Rambo 2’, ‘Anaconda’, etc. Next, we will arrive to Catalina island. Its main attraction is the magnificent underwater coral reef ecosystem. Our guests will have plenty of time (45 min) to enjoy the true beauty of ‘The Wall’ (La Pared), Dominican Republic’s most famous snorkeling spot that boasts a rich variety of fish and marine plants (snorkeling masks and tubes are provided). Snacks and drinks (water, soft drinks, rum) will be available on board the catamaran as we head to the island itself while enjoying the mesmerizing rhythms of Caribbean music.
Once here, we will enjoy a delicious lunch (various types or rice, pasta, grilled chicken and pork, potatoes, salads and fresh vegetables), an open bar (water, soft drinks, rum and beer) and a beautiful beach, fully equipped with sunbeds and bathrooms (approximately 2,5h).
Around 2:30PM we will head back to Bayahibe and arrive around 4:30PM. From here the transfer will take our clients back to their accommodation in Bayahibe or Punta Cana.
