Description
Your experience, your group, your boat, your pace.
A full-day private experience to Saona Island designed for travelers looking for comfort, freedom, and a more authentic way to enjoy the Caribbean.
This is not a rushed excursion. This is your own private day at sea with a bilingual guide, flexible timing, stunning beaches, and personalized service throughout the experience.
For greater comfort and safety, we offer different boat sizes based on the number of guests and the needs of each group, ensuring a more comfortable and enjoyable experience for everyone onboard.
Your day
Your experience begins with hotel pickup, where one of our bilingual guides will share local history, culture, and stories during the drive to Bayahibe.
Once there, we begin with snorkeling at the reef area, surrounded by crystal-clear Caribbean waters, tropical fish, and coral formations.
After snorkeling, we visit the famous Natural Pool, one of the Dominican Republic’s most iconic locations, known for its shallow turquoise waters and giant starfish. Since this is a private experience, every stop can be enjoyed at your own pace.
From the Natural Pool, we continue to Canto de la Playa, considered one of the most beautiful and exclusive beaches on Saona Island for its untouched scenery, peaceful atmosphere, and pristine waters. The boat ride from the Natural Pool to Canto de la Playa takes approximately 30 to 50 minutes depending on sea and weather conditions. Guests who prefer a shorter navigation experience may choose to visit Paradise instead. This option is completely up to the client.
At the beach, you will have plenty of time to swim, relax under the palm trees, walk along the shoreline, or simply enjoy the island atmosphere.
Around lunchtime, a traditional Dominican meal is served directly on the beach. The menu can be adapted according to the client’s preferences. National drinks are included throughout the experience, with premium options available upon request.
In the afternoon, we make our relaxing return across the Caribbean Sea.
Estimated return to hotel: approximately 5:30 PM to 6:30 PM.
