Itinerary
This destination, also recognized as a Global Ecotourism Paradise, is home to the breathtaking migration of humpback whales, observable from January to early April when over 3,500 of these majestic creatures visit its warm waters. I recommend booking the whale watching option when it is available during this period. Your adventure begins with a scenic boat ride from Sabana de la Mar to Samaná Bay. Upon arrival, you'll embark on an exciting horseback ride to the majestic Limón Waterfall. Standing 50 meters tall, this waterfall features a natural pool surrounded by lush tropical rainforest, perfect for a refreshing dip.
Next, you'll board a safari truck for a tour of the historic city of Samaná, discovered by Christopher Columbus in 1493. During the tour, you'll learn about its rich history and the first encounter between Europeans and natives.
After the city tour, you’ll enjoy a Dominican buffet at a countryside restaurant, featuring a variety of local dishes and fresh tropical fruits. Then, you'll head to Cayo Levantado, also known as "Bacardi Island," where you'll have free time to relax on its white sandy beaches and turquoise waters.
Finally, you'll return to the mainland and be transferred back to your accommodation, carrying with you unforgettable memories of a day filled with nature, history, and relaxation in one of the most beautiful corners of the Caribbean.

About Punta Cana
Punta Cana, on the Dominican Republic's eastern tip, is a coast of palm-lined white beaches, calm reef-protected water and easygoing island days.
The area stretches along a long sweep of coastline, from Bávaro Beach and Cabeza de Toro to Macao and Uvero Alto, where coconut palms lean over soft white sand. Coral reefs offshore keep the water calm and clear in many spots, ideal for swimming, snorkelling and catamaran outings along the shore.
Top-ranked sights in Punta Cana: Macao Beach (Playa Macao), Bavaro Beach (Playa Bavaro), Coco Bongo Punta Cana.
