Tour Description

Escape to paradise on this full-day Saona Island tour, one of the Dominican Republic's most coveted destinations. Saona Island, located within the country's protected biosphere, offers pristine white sand beaches, crystal-clear shallow waters, and swaying palm trees that create the perfect tropical paradise setting.

Your adventure begins with comfortable transportation from your hotel to the port of Bayahibe, where you'll board either a speedboat or catamaran for the scenic journey to Saona Island. As you cruise along the coastline of the Eastern National Park, keep your eyes peeled for dolphins playing in the wake and brown pelicans soaring overhead.

A highlight of the journey is a stop at a natural swimming pool - a hidden sandbank in the middle of the Caribbean Sea where the water is waist-deep and perfectly warm. Take a refreshing dip in these crystal-clear waters while enjoying tropical cocktails from the open bar.

Upon arriving at Saona Island, you'll have the entire day to explore this tropical paradise. Play beach volleyball with fellow travelers, learn traditional Dominican dances like merengue and bachata from our experienced guides, or simply relax under the shade of palm trees with a good book. The shallow waters make it perfect for swimming, wading, or floating on inflatable toys.

A delicious buffet lunch featuring grilled chicken, fresh seafood, rice and beans, tropical fruits, and local specialties is served on the beach. The open bar offers water, soft drinks, beer, rum, and coffee throughout the day.

Optional services include professional photography sessions, beach massages, and souvenir shopping. The tour includes professional English-speaking guides, round-trip transportation, lunch, and all activities on the island.
