Catalina Island & Chavon River Day Trip

Join us on an adventure from Bayahibe, where we will unveil the enchanting beauty of Catalina Island. Prepare to snorkel and navigate the Chavón River, the iconic filming location for the renowned movie Apocalypse Now.

Catalina Island & Chavón River Day Trip

Our journey begins with an early morning pickup from your hotel, followed by boarding a sailing catamaran destined for Catalina Island. As we set sail, enjoy a picturesque 40-minute ride across the vibrant blue waters of the Caribbean Sea.

Upon arriving at our first stop, we will anchor near a vibrant coral reef known as La Pared, or The Wall. Here, you can take a refreshing swim and snorkel to discover a mesmerizing underwater world. Spend 40 minutes exploring this aquatic paradise before returning to the catamaran and continuing to the dock on Catalina Island.

Once ashore, a delightful buffet lunch awaits you at a quaint restaurant with breathtaking ocean views. After refueling, you will enjoy two and a half hours of leisure time to bask on the stunning white sand beaches. Whether you choose to unwind and soak up the sun or engage in exciting activities like paddle surfing, a memorable afternoon is guaranteed.

As we embark back on the catamaran, prepare to witness a dramatic change in scenery. The Chavón River, a backdrop for legendary films such as Rambo II and King Kong, offers a stunning natural setting that will leave you in awe.

To conclude this unforgettable experience, we will return along the coast, allowing you to admire the luxurious villas lining the shore, before dropping you back at your accommodation by boat.
