Discover The Tropical Paradise Of Saona Island On A Relaxing Catamaran Cruise Experience


Escape to Saona Island, a stunning tropical destination known for its exotic flora, swaying palm trees, and pristine white sands. Your journey begins with a scenic sail from Bayahibe, utilizing a combination of a spacious catamaran and a fast boat to navigate the sun-splashed seas. As you travel through the protected waters of Cotubanama National Park, you will be surrounded by breathtaking vistas and the vibrant blue-green hues of the Caribbean, setting the stage for a truly relaxing and memorable day.


The island and its surrounding marine environment are of great ecological importance, serving as a protected national park that safeguards diverse species. During the trip, you will learn about the local conservation programs, including efforts to protect manatees and sea turtles, which are vital to the health of the region's ecosystem. This commitment to sustainability ensures that the natural beauty of Saona remains preserved for future generations to enjoy while you explore its unique and tranquil landscapes.


A highlight of the cruise is a stop at a shallow natural pool formed by sandbanks in the middle of the sea. Here, you can swim or snorkel among shoals of colorful tropical fish in crystal-clear water. It is a magical experience to be standing in the middle of the ocean, surrounded by such vibrant marine life. This stop provides a perfect opportunity to cool off and enjoy the refreshing waters before continuing your journey to the main island.


Once you arrive at Saona, you will have ample time to explore the 1km-long private beach at your own pace. Whether you choose to take a barefoot stroll along the shoreline, snap photos of the dazzling scenery, or simply relax with a cocktail in hand, the island offers a serene escape from the everyday. With its combination of adventure, nature, and relaxation, this cruise provides the ultimate Caribbean experience for those looking to unwind in a beautiful, tropical setting.

Our experience on the Saona Island Tours was quite an adventure! However, I must admit, I wasn’t a fan of the chaotic scene as people jostled to board the boat. It felt a bit overwhelming at times. The tour guides could certainly benefit from improving their readiness when it comes to docking and undocking the boats. However, let me tell you, the location itself was absolutely stunning! I was captivated by the beauty of Bayahibe, and honestly, I wish we could have stayed for a couple more days. The beach was simply incredible—much more appealing than what I’ve seen in Punta Cana. If you appreciate breathtaking views and pristine sands, this is definitely the place to be!

Things we were supposed to do like snorkeling and, turtle sanctuary never happened. Drivers and boat captain were great but nobody spoke English, another thing we were supposed to have. Although the locations we went were beautiful, none of the things we paid for were received. Not the guides fault, definitely the company. We made the most of it. Definitely need much more communication up front regarding activities, language, lunch (and cash required), and drinks. Should've been our best excursion but was the most frustrating.

Great experience but very expensive , try snorkeling with a life jacket on, plus getting back on board the boat in deep water was difficult, especially as no rope on the bottom runs of the ladder, food was mediocre on board and at saona island, overall a very long day , it took us 3 hrs to get to the first boat , bus journey very long .
