Full Description ?️

Your day begins with a comfortable, air-conditioned transfer from your hotel to the pier. From there, you'll board a boat and head into the heart of Samaná Bay. During the winter months, these waters become a sanctuary for thousands of humpback whales. Your expert guide will help you spot these giants as they breach and tail-slap near the boat. After the whale watching, we head to the white sands of Cayo Levantado. You’ll have plenty of time to swim in crystal-clear turquoise waters, relax under palm trees, and enjoy a hearty Dominican lunch. It is a bucket-list experience that combines the best of the Dominican Republic’s nature and beauty.
