Description
Embark on the ultimate expedition to the Samaná Peninsula, a postcard-worthy corner of the Dominican Republic. This full-day adventure is designed to show you the purest and wildest beauty of the Caribbean.
Your day starts before dawn with a convenient pick-up. During the scenic road trip, we'll make a strategic stop for you to enjoy an **authentic Dominican breakfast**, courtesy of AdrenTrip, to kickstart your day with energy.
When we get to Samaná, we'll board a catamaran and sail through the turquoise waters of the bay until we reach the legendary Bacardi Island (Cayo Levantado). Here, you'll have free time to relax on its white sandy beaches, swim in its crystal clear waters, and feel like you're in a true paradise.
Then, your expedition takes one of two unforgettable paths, depending on the option you choose and the season:
1. Adventure at the El Limón Waterfall: You'll ride a gentle horse and venture into the tropical forest. A local guide will take you along lush trails to the base of the impressive El Limón Waterfall, a 40-meter waterfall that forms a natural pool perfect for a refreshing dip.
**2. Humpback Whale Sanctuary (only from January to March):** If you're traveling in season, you'll have one of nature's most breathtaking experiences. We'll sail to the Humpback Whale Sanctuary to observe these gentle giants in their natural habitat. Watching them jump and listening to their songs is a memory for a lifetime.
To round off the day, you'll enjoy a delicious buffet lunch on the island before heading back.
