Two Island Excursion

Saona & Catalinita

Excursions to the Caribbean islands Catalinita and Saona.

After leaving Bayahibe we proceed along the coastline of the National Park until we get to the rocks of the Penón, which were once home of the Tainos. If we have luck we can see the iguanas living there, which could be 2 ft long.

On the way to the " Channel " we stop off at the "Piscina Natural", which means "natural swimming pool", and is well known for the large starfish. The water is shallow, even far off the beach, you always can touch bottom, the colors of the water are fascinating turkeys and blue.

The boat then goes through the channel in between Saona and the mainland where you will be able to observe frigate birds and pelicans nesting in the mangroves. Sometimes you can see nurse sharks and big stingrays between the mangroves. Further on in the channel we reach a sand bank, where we have a glass of champagne to welcome the Atlantic which meets here the Caribbean Sea.

Then we visit the uninhabited island Catalinita which is untouched from tourism, a „Robinson Crusoe Island“. On the small sandy beach of the island there are thousands of shells. In the shallow water we will see crayfish and shrimps.

This is followed by a chance to snorkel in the coral gardens near Catalinita. Between corals, giant sponges and sea fans we will observe colorful Caribbean fish.

We then take you to the lovely beaches on Saona, where buffet lunch is provided on the beach. After lunch you can relax on the beach, swim or enjoy a drink.

The number of participants on this excursion is limited to a maximum of 14 person

What you should bring:

sunscreen lotion, towel, shoes for the beach, a T-shirt for sun protection if you plan to do snorkeling.
