Discover this Dominican paradise with this tour of the beaches of Saona Island from Punta Cana. Also, you'll discover some of the less-visited and most beautiful spots on this dreamy island.
Saona Island Beach Tour
We'll pick you up at your hotel in Punta Cana between 7 and 9 am. Once we're gathered, we'll set off to Bayahibe, where we'll board a boat to start our Saona Island tour.
During the cruise, we'll make a brief stop at Palmilla beach. This oasis is a must-see spot where you'll be able to enjoy a swim in the clearest waters you've ever seen. Afterward, we'll sail to Saona Island, where we'll visit Mano de Juan and Caleta beaches. In both, you'll discover unspoiled expanses of white sandy beaches.
Anyone hungry? Well, you're in luck, since it's time for lunch. By the seaside, we'll enjoy a traditional menu consisting of rice, meat, salad, pasta and a non-alcoholic drink. Bon appétit!
Having enjoyed a delicious meal, we'll head to the small fishing village of Mano Juan. There, we'll meet the locals and chat with the workers at the sea turtle preservation center, who'll show us the care needed for newborn sea turtles.
Our next destination? Los Flamencos beach, a dreamy spot with turquoise waters where we'll relax and enjoy the gentle breeze, and then we'll take a boat ride to explore the mangrove swamps of the area. During this ride, you'll be able to dive into the sea to spot the famous giant sea stars. You must, however, respect their habitat and avoid disturbing them.
Later, we'll have a toast with a glass of Dominican rum and then we'll be on our way back to Bayahibe. We'll hop on a bus that will take us back to Punta Cana.
We'll arrive at the hotel between 5 and 6:30 pm.
