It's time to get on board our boat to ride thorugh the beautiful Samana Bay, home few months per year of the Humpback Whale season, till reaching the small town of Samana, called Santa Barbara.
From the dock we'll get on a truck and we'll make our way to the most magnificent waterfall in the country, El Salto de Limon (Limon Waterfall)! We'll reach a ranch located in the mountain and be taken into the tropical forest, for a short horseback riding tour along the River Arroyo Chico. The dense vegetation will captivate your senses and leave you with a real taste of adventure. Ultimately, the trail leads to the picturesque Limon Waterfall: an impressive 170 foot drop of fresh water, right in the middle of the jungle. Splash yourself in the refreshing waters of the lagoons at the base of the waterfall. And don’t forget to take the perfect picture of your family and yourself in this memorable place!
While the morning has been dedicated to the adventure, the afternoon will be focused in relaxing. We'll climb again into our open air truck and head down to the dock to take a short boat trip to the gorgeous Cayo Levantado, also known as Bacardi Island.

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.
