Saona Island

Travel by speedboat and catamaran to experience the best Snorkelling, white sands and plenty of natural beauty along the southeastern coast of the Dominican Republic with an unforgettable Saona Island tour. This is more than a simple trip to the beach. You’ll also enjoy activities such as volleyball, swimming in a natural pool in the middle of the sea, and plenty of dancing and music on board the boat.

Sail to the Saona

The Saona Island tour begins with transport from your resort to the fishing village of Bayahibe, where you’ll be boarding either a catamaran or a speedboat. As you pass the national park, keep your eyes wide open for the creatures that call this wilderness home. On the way, your guides will take you to a hidden gem — a natural swimming place.

Then it’s time to continue onward to the marvellous Saona Beach. You’ll know you've arrived when the boat pulls into the gorgeous white sands that make it a must-see destination in the Dominican Republic.

Enjoy games, relaxation and lunch at Saona Beach.

There are few places where you can relax and have a blast at the same time like Saona Beach. Learn to dance merengue, swim in the clear Caribbean Sea and get competitive with a game of beach volleyball.

Beach life is about balance, so once you’ve worked up a sweat, it’s time to take a break under the shade of palm trees. Don’t doze off too early, although, because there’s also a Dominican lunch buffet with a variety of regional dishes to savour. If you want to take your relaxation a step further, you can book a massage for an additional fee.

Cruise back from your Saona Island tour.

You won’t want to say ‘adios’, but when the time comes to end your dreamy tour of Sanoa Island, it will be in style. Board either a catamaran, which will cruise back to Bayahibe with music and an open bar, or a speedboat for a thrilling ride back to the marina.

By the time you return to your resort in a comfortable vehicle, you’ll have lots of memories from your tropical paradise adventure.
