Overview
Located on the southern coast, Saona Island is one of the most popular destinations in the Dominican Republic. On this Saona Island Excursion guests will spend a day sailing through the Cotubanama National Park towards Saona Island. We will set sail in the morning for 1 hour and a half. Our staff will make sure you are having a great time as they serve refreshments and teach guests to dance merengue. Upon arrival at Saona Island, you will have the day to relax and bathe in the crystalline waters or enjoy a drink at the open bar. For lunch, a delicious Dominican buffet will be served. In the afternoon, we will return by speedboat as we make our way to the natural pool, famous for its abundance of starfish. We will spend around 30 minutes here so you’ll have the opportunity to capture some beautiful photos of the starfish.
- Pick up in the morning at the meeting point given by SeaPro

- A typical Dominican lunch will be served

The experience was both fun and professional. The boat crew clearly knew what they were doing, and enjoyed doing it. While I was there by myself, there were both small children and older adults on the excursion, and the crew were very courteous and appropriately helpful with both.
Professional team, both dives in Playa Blanca were great and we got to see many turtles, rays and tons of fishes. I will choose that same dive shop when I dive in Punta Cana again in the future.
