Book a private whale-watching tour from Cap Cana to Samaná. Witness humpback whales in their sanctuary and relax on Cayo Levantado with lunch and drinks.
Overview Experience one of nature's most spectacular displays with a private whale-watching expedition to Samaná Bay. This exclusive tour departs from the luxury enclave of Cap Cana, offering a high-end, personalized journey to witness the majestic humpback whales in their natural breeding grounds. After an exhilarating morning on the water, the tour transitions to the world-famous Cayo Levantado for a relaxing afternoon of tropical luxury.
Highlights Enjoy a private boat excursion through the Sanctuary of the Humpback Whales, where you can observe these giant mammals breaching and tail-flipping. Benefit from the privacy of your own vessel and the undivided attention of an expert naturalist guide. The tour includes a premium stop at Cayo Levantado, an island known for its turquoise waters and white sands, where you will enjoy a traditional Dominican lunch and private beach time.
Full Description The day begins with a private transfer from your accommodation to the pier, followed by a scenic journey to Samaná Bay. As you enter the sanctuary, your captain will navigate to the best viewing areas where whales congregate to mate and give birth. You will spend time observing their behavior from a respectful distance, guided by experts who explain the biology and migration patterns of these creatures. Following the whale encounter, you will dock at Cayo Levantado. This "Bacardi Island" offers a secluded atmosphere where you can swim, sunbathe, and enjoy a curated lunch before your private return trip back to the mainland.
What’s Included The tour includes private round-trip transportation from Cap Cana, a private boat for whale watching, a professional naturalist guide, and all entrance fees to the Marine Mammal Sanctuary. A gourmet or traditional Dominican lunch on Cayo Levantado is included, along with an open bar of local drinks and refreshments throughout the day.
