? Full Description
Your adventure begins in the morning with a comfortable hotel pickup. From Punta Cana, you’re transferred to the port, where you board either a speedboat or a catamaran. The boat ride is part of the fun — feel the breeze, enjoy the scenery, and start to unwind.
On the way to the island, you’ll stop at a natural swimming pool in the sea. The water is shallow, clear, and calm — it's a peaceful place to soak, swim, or look for starfish.
Once on Saona Island, you’ll have a few hours of free time. Lounge on the sand, dip in the turquoise water, take photos, or play volleyball. When it’s time to eat, you’ll dig into a buffet lunch full of local Dominican dishes. The open bar during the day keeps your drink glass full, whether you prefer beer, rum, or soft drinks.
After enjoying the island, you board the boat again for the ride back. You’ll return to your hotel in Punta Cana, relaxed and full of island memories.
