About this experience
Let's sail on to the sun on this unique full-day adventure! We will dive into the Caribbean Sea on a Yellow Semi Submarine, watch colorful tropical fish, coral reefs and a mysterious shipwreck, then go snorkeling to explore this exotic underwater world closer. After swimming, we are boarding our motomaran and rush to the shores of Saona Island while dancing in the company of cheerful animators. Full steam ahead, captain!
Here, on Saona, we relax among the green palm trees, surrounded by white-sand beaches and the endless blue of the Caribbean Sea. A few hours will be enough for us to swim, sunbathe and have a delicious lunch - a buffet is served for us and a bar is open. On the way back, we stop in a natural pool in the middle of the Caribbean Sea and go looking for starfish - on foot, because the water here is waist-deep.
This full-day adventure literally gives you a chance to take a total dip in the exotic nature of the Caribbean and see its beauty both on land and underwater!
