Description
Go whale watching in Samana Bay from Punta Cana
The adventure begins with pick-up from your Punta Cana hotel on a bus, which will take you through the scenic roads of the northeastern Dominican Republic. Admire the views until arriving to the marina of a small fishing village. From there, board a comfortable boat for a ride to the humpback whales sanctuary in Samana Bay. You’ll sail toward the majestic Cayo Levantado, a beautiful island sandbar in the middle of the turquoise waters, sipping drinks along the way.
Your knowledgeable bilingual guides will point out the biological diverse sights until you finally find what you’ve been looking for — the majestic humpback whales! These fantastic sea mammals visit the Samana Bay from every winter after trekking from the Arctic Sea to mate and give birth in this protected area. Hopefully, you’ll watch the humpback whales breach several feet up in the air, expel water through their blowholes, sing their powerful songs to communicate with each other, or simply swim peacefully as they bask in the warmth of the Dominican Republic.
Relax with a buffet lunch at Cayo Levantado Island
Following your sailing and whale watching encounter, head to Cayo Levantado Island to enjoy a full buffet lunch and one drink on the beach. After you’ve had your fill, take some time to relax along the island’s white-sand shores and swim in its gorgeous waters. When your excursion concludes, board your boat for the return ride to the mainland, where your bus will be on standby to return you to Punta Cana.
