? Full Description
Your journey begins with a comfortable pickup from your hotel, heading to the charming fishing village of Bayahibe. From there, you’ll board a speedboat to zoom across the waves toward Saona Island. Along the way, we stop at the famous Natural Pool, a waist-deep sandbar in the middle of the ocean where you can swim in crystal-clear water.
Upon arriving at the island, you are free to explore, sunbathe under coconut palms, or swim in the calm tropical waters. At midday, a delicious Dominican buffet lunch is served right on the beach, featuring local specialties.
