? Full Description
Begin your day with hotel pickup in Punta Cana, where a support vehicle will take you to the meeting point for your boat transfer. From there, hop on a speedboat and glide across the clear waters toward a natural swimming pool — a shallow sandbar known for its calm water, visibility, and starfish.
Next, arrive at Saona Island, a slice of tropical heaven with white beaches, palm trees swaying in the breeze, and crystal-clear water. You’ll have free time to sunbathe, swim, or just walk along the coastline. A delicious Dominican buffet lunch awaits, paired with an open bar serving tropical drinks all day long.
For the return journey, hop aboard a catamaran where the mood lifts with music, dancing, and more refreshing drinks. The cruise back offers stunning views of the Caribbean and a festive atmosphere — a perfect way to cap off the day.
