Premium Saona Island: Discovery Mode
SPEED BOAT ROUND TRIP
(SNORKELING + EL TORO BEACH + MANO JUAN VILLAGE + MANGROVES + NATURAL POOL + SHOPPING*)
One of the highest-quality Saonas in the area, you'll have the privilege of being accompanied by a Tour Leader speaking your language throughout the activity, who will be the same person you'll speak to, from the moment you book. You'll enjoy the island without the crowds and have plenty of time to enjoy this paradise. Thanks to the speedboat, you'll be able to discover every corner of the island.
We use biodegradable materials throughout the day on this eco-friendly, plastic-free tour.
​
We'll take the shuttle from your hotel and drive directly (pickups only at hotels along the way), without deviating from the route, approximately 1 hour to Bayahíbe, one of the most beautiful towns and beaches in the country, where we'll board our comfortable speed boat with padded seats.
The first stop will be the Corals of Bayahíbe, where we can snorkel spectacularly to observe the colorful Caribbean fish (equipment included).
​
We'll drive on our speedboat for approximately 30 minutes to the second stop, Playa El Toro, where we'll see the pinkest sand and enjoy the most pristine and secluded area. We'll have plenty of time to stroll, enjoy the island, sip the included drinks, try our cake, savor a delicious piña colada or fresh coconuts, served by the island's natives, and take photos. We'll then take the speedboat again to reach the third stop.
Along the way, we'll see the famous Catuano Channel from the boat, where the sea meets the ocean and simultaneously separates Hispaniola Island from Saona Island.
We'll arrive at Mano Juan, the second-to-last beach with the only village on the island, where we'll enjoy a private buffet lunch, freshly prepared with non-alcoholic beverages, right on the beach. Lobster can be added upon reservation (an extra US$20, seasonal only). After lunch, we'll have free time in the village. This village is also home to the turtle sanctuary, where you can see newborn turtles or eggs if you travel during their season.
We'll be able to fall in love with the wild donkeys and take a voluntary walk through the village, where we'll explain interesting facts about the Dominican culture and much more. If walking isn't your thing and you just want the beach, you can stay on the beach.
​
After this, we'll take the boat back to Los Manglares, these spectacular trees in the middle of the sea, which are home to a wealth of marine life. With luck, we'll even be able to see a Green or Carey Turtle, as this is their habitat.
The most anticipated moment arrives! The Natural Pool, where we'll stay for about 40 minutes. We'll take a pleasant swim near the island in this marine paradise. You can drink and talk to the people from the water. It doesn't go deeper than your waist. This is where the starfish live on the bottom (and sometimes sting rays and other marine creatures), but remember that for their well-being, they can't be touched or taken out of the water. Put on your snorkel mask if you want to see them up close!
​
After the Natural Pool, the sad moment of returning to Bayahibe will arrive. With the best memories, we'll take our transportation and stop along the way to visit a giant store to use the restrooms, try local products for FREE, and find the best souvenirs at the best prices, where each item will have its price marked. (Optional - Punta Cana only)
