About this Tour

   

After travelling from Santo Domingo for aprox. 1 hour and 20 minutes you will arrive at La Marina in La Romana. Next, you will board our boat where you will be welcomed by our team with tropical refreshments, to set you in the mood for your adventure.

You will then leave the marina and set for the east side of 'Catalina Island' to the snorkel site known as 'The Wall', which caters for novice to expert snorkelers. You can receive Life jackets if you require them and you can expect light refreshments and music carefully selected by the entertainment team to uplift you on your journey. 

You will have just under 1 hour of snorkeiing at this beautiful site where you can expect clear blue water and incredible visibility.

Things to look out for while snorkeling include; vase sponge, fire coral, sea pen, sea cucumber, sea fan coral, black coral, Elkhorn coral, leather coral, porcupine fish, sailfin sculpin, green parrotfish, moray eel, scorpion fish, snapper, southern stingray, blue parrotfish, elephant ear, sponge coral, green angelfish, trumpet fish, butterfly fish, lion fish, yellow stingray and more.  

 

We will then set course to the Caribbean shorelines of Catalina Island, 10 square kms of white sand beaches surrounded by the crystal clear blue waters of the Caribbean. The island was baptized "Santa Catalina" by Christopher Columbus, who visited it in May, 1494.

Here the ocean is so incredibly clear and the beach has white, white sand. You can also put on some snorkeling gear and admire Catalina’s underwater world or take in the swaying palms trees and transparent waters. 

Directly on the Catalina Island you can expect to taste fresh fish caught that morning, pork, chicken, salads, pasta and local fruits all prepared in a hygienic kitchen. We highly recommend you save space for the local fruits.

The rest of the afternoon will be yours, to relax listening to the waves breaking on the shore, snorkel in the clear blue waters or enjoy our bar and the cool breeze looking over the ocean.

You will then arrive back at the marina where you will find your bus waiting to take you back to your hotel.
