Your morning begins with pickup from your hotel in Punta Cana (or its resort area). You’ll transfer to the port and board a speedboat or catamaran to Saona Island. Along the way you’ll stop at a striking natural pool in the sea—shallow, crystal clear, with starfish visible under foot.

Stroll the white-sand shores, swim in the turquoise water, relax under coconut palms, or play beach volleyball. A delicious buffet lunch of Dominican dishes awaits, complemented by an open bar offering local drinks. Later in the afternoon your return is onboard a catamaran (or speedboat), with music, dancing and festive spirit as you cross back to the mainland, then onward to your hotel, arriving in the early evening.
