Catalina Island Day Trip
Description
Experience a picturesque getaway with this excursion to Catalina Island from Santo Domingo, where you will explore a stunning destination in the Dominican Caribbean and engage in snorkeling in pristine waters.
Details of the Day Trip
Your adventure starts with a pickup at the agreed time from Pizzarelli Zona Colonial in Parque Colón. This central meeting point in the Colonial City of Santo Domingo sets the stage for our journey southeast across the Dominican Republic.
After about 1.5 hours of travel, we'll arrive at the port of La Romana. Here, we'll board a catamaran with onboard entertainment. Get ready to glide over the inviting waters of the Dominican Caribbean! During the cruise, a variety of beverages will be available, including rum, beer, soft drinks, juices, and water.
Our first stop will be at a coral reef, where we'll take time to snorkel. We will provide masks, tubes, and fins, allowing you to marvel at the vibrant tropical fish and observe the area's breathtaking coral formations closely.
Next, we will sail toward Catalina Island, a stunning, protected area that is part of the Cotubanamá National Park. Once we dock, you will enjoy free time to swim, sunbathe, or wander along its beautiful beach.
As midday approaches, a delectable buffet-style meal will be served on the beach, featuring rice, eggplants in sauce, chicken, lamb chops, salad, pasta, and fresh fruit. After your meal, relax on the beach and take in the views of the Caribbean Sea.
Finally, we will gather to start our return trip to La Romana. From there, we will drive back to the meeting point in Santo Domingo, marking the end of this 10-hour adventure.
