About this experience
Morning pickup from Punta Cana or cabeza de toro means a stress-free start to your day. Enjoy the scenery on the way to Bayahibe, where you will board a catamaran to travel to Saona Island.
This tour is an excellent option for independent travelers. Options for activities, you can simply relax on the loungers and have drinks from the open bar. Stroll along the white sand beach under swaying palm trees to collect shells or go swimming until it's time for the buffet lunch.
At the end of the day, hop aboard a speedboat for the journey back to the mainland, stopping at the area's famous natural pool to swim and view the resident starfish. Back on the main island, enjoy a comfortable return to your hotel.

Itinerary and highlights
Isla Saona is surrounded by beautiful beaches and history, and is one of the most sought after places in the southeast of the Dominican Republic.
A stop is made at the natural swimming pool at Playa Palmilla, about 200 or 300 meters from the beach line, with the water at the knees or at the waist, to enjoy the perfect scenery and climate. Bathers have to enjoy around 800 meters parallel to the beach, between the white sand and the huge coral terrace that separates the natural pool from the open sea and that makes this geological wonder possible.
