Saona Island: Small Group Virgin Beaches Cruise Day Trip

Embark on an unforgettable journey to Saona Island, one of the most stunning places in the Dominican Republic. This small group tour invites you to explore the pristine beauty of the island and experience its relaxed atmosphere, far from the crowds.

The adventure begins with a picturesque boat ride from the charming village of Bayahibe to Saona Island, where the breathtaking Caribbean Sea, tropical landscapes, and warm sun create the perfect backdrop for an unforgettable day.

Your first stop is the colorful village of Mano Juan, the only inhabited area on the island. Here, you’ll learn about the important turtle conservation project, which is vital for protecting the local marine life and endangered sea turtles. You’ll get a chance to participate in conservation efforts and understand the island’s commitment to preserving its unique natural resources.

Next, the excursion takes you to the secluded Canto de la Playa, one of the most serene beaches on the island. With its pristine white sand and crystal-clear turquoise waters, this paradise beach offers the perfect opportunity to snorkel. Whether you choose to relax on the beach, swim, or dive into the underwater world, you’ll feel the tranquility and beauty of Saona Island surrounding you.

After some free time at the beach, you’ll enjoy a delicious Dominican lunch. Tasty rice, grilled meat, fresh salads, and tropical fruits make for the ideal meal to recharge, all served with a stunning view of the Caribbean Sea. This authentic lunch on the island lets you taste the flavors of the Dominican Republic in a peaceful and relaxed setting.

The final stop of the excursion is the famous Natural Pool, a unique spot in the middle of the ocean where the water is clear, warm, and inviting. Here, you’ll find starfish dotting the ocean floor, and the shallow waters make it the perfect place to stroll and relax. Take a moment to enjoy a refreshing drink while soaking in the picturesque views and reflecting on the day’s adventure.

Throughout the excursion, the friendly and knowledgeable crew will ensure you have a pleasant and enriching experience, offering insights into the island's history, ecology, and culture. Unlike larger group tours that accommodate up to 100-120 people on catamarans and over 500 people on the beaches, the Saona Attitude excursion offers a more intimate experience with smaller groups, ensuring personalized attention and a more relaxed atmosphere.

As you return to Bayahibe, you'll be filled with wonderful memories of a day spent discovering the natural wonders and peaceful charm of Saona Island. Whether you’re seeking adventure, relaxation, or cultural immersion, our Saona Island tour offers an unforgettable escape in the heart of the Caribbean.
