Family catamaran tour in Punta Cana: snorkeling on a reef with better visibility, a private beach and the natural pool, with open bar and hotel pickup.
Unlike boats that stay close to shore, Reef Discovery sails farther with Coastline Catamarans to reach reefs with clearer water. You snorkel for about 45 minutes among tropical fish and coral (gear included), stop for about 30 minutes at a private beach (when the waves allow it) and finish at the natural pool.
It departs on Mondays, Thursdays and Saturdays at 12:00 noon and lasts about 3 hours on the water; in high season it may run more days. We pick you up at your hotel or Airbnb in Bávaro or Punta Cana and take you back. On board there is an open bar with house cocktails, fresh fruit and sandwiches, with a bilingual crew that has hundreds of 5-star reviews.
Adults (13 and older) US$69 and children under 13 free: the best plan for families with kids and couples looking for a relaxed day at sea.
