La Romana: Scuba Diving in Catalina Island

Short Description
“Join an exhilarating full‑day dive tour from La Romana to Catalina Island: explore two top dive sites (‘The Wall’ & ‘The Aquarium’), enjoy a BBQ lunch on the beach, unlimited drinks and free time under palm trees. Perfect for certified divers in the Dominican Republic.”
Description
Your day begins with hotel pickup in La Romana and transfer to the marina. At around 10:00 AM you board a catamaran and set sail for Catalina Island. Your first dive is at The Wall, where you’ll explore depths from 5 m to over 40 m under the guidance of PADI dive masters in crystal‑clear waters. After about an hour underwater, you move to the second site, The Aquarium, with shallower depths (8‑12 m) and vibrant marine life. After diving, you arrive on Catalina Island and enjoy a Dominican‑style feast (barbecue pork & chicken, salads, pasta, local fruits) served around 1:00 PM. The afternoon is yours: relax on the beach, snorkel off the shore, sip a drink at the ocean‑side bar, or stroll the palm‑fringed sand. Around 3:15 PM you head back to the marina with light refreshments and entertainment on board, arriving back at your hotel around 4:00 PM.
