Full Description 📝 Your adventure begins at the meeting point in Samana, where you will board a boat to navigate the coast. As we cruise along the peninsula, you’ll witness the breathtaking geography of the region before arriving at Playa Ermitaño. This beach is a true sanctuary; with its white sands and calm waters, it is ideal for swimming and relaxing in complete privacy. Your guide will share stories of the area’s history and the natural ecosystems that thrive here.
Next, we move to Playa Onda, a beach that feels like a well-kept secret.
