One Day. A Coral Reef. An Uninhabited Island. A River Through the Jungle.
Snorkel El Acuario coral reef off Bayahibe. Spend the afternoon on Catalina Island — white sand, turquoise water, no crowds. Dominican buffet lunch and open bar included. Cruise back along the Chavón River.
What you will experience
El acuario snorkeling
Snorkel the coral garden at El Acuario off Bayahibe — shallow, calm water with high visibility. Equipment provided. Staff in the water with you if it's your first time.
Catalina island beach
A full afternoon on a white sand beach with no hotels, no vendors, no noise. The water is flat and clear — good for swimming, floating, or just doing nothing. Exactly what a beach day should be.
Dominican Buffet & Open Bar
A Dominican buffet spread served on the island, with an open bar running through the afternoon. Budget nothing extra for food and drinks — it's all in the $75.
Chavón River Cruise
The ride back follows the Chavón River through dense jungle. The Casa de Campo Marina comes into view as you approach. It's a slow, scenic end to a full day — better than a highway.
Scuva Diving - optional add-on
Catalina Island is one of the top dive sites in the Caribbean. If you want to go below the snorkel line, scuba diving is available at the island for $144 per person. Not included in the base ticket — paid on-site.

Before you go
Tips for a smoother day
Wear your swimsuit under clothes
You go straight from the bus to the boat. No changing room stop. Swimsuit on from the moment you leave the hotel.
Reef-safe sunscreen only
Required at El Acuario and on the island. Chemical sunscreens damage the coral. Biodegradable only — the crew will check.
Bring a waterproof camera or pouch
The reef is worth photographing. A dry bag for your phone costs less than a ruined one.
Carry $20–30 USD cash
Scuba diving, gratuities, and personal souvenirs are not included. Cash is safer than a card on a boat.
Tell us about any health needs
Motion sickness, allergies, or mobility limitations — let us know before you book. We want your day to go smoothly from the first pickup to the drop-off.
Catalina Island fills up fast in high season.
December through April, spots go weeks in advance. If you have a date, lock it in now — free cancellation up to 24 hours before gives you room to adjust.
