Private boat to Saona island from Punta Cana

Published on Dec, 2024

Our private tour to Saona Island from Punta Cana was a dream. From start to finish, everything was perfectly organized, making the experience truly unforgettable. The boat ride to Saona was breathtaking, with crystal-clear turquoise waters and stunning coastal views. Being on a private tour, we had the flexibility to stop at secluded spots and enjoy the beauty without the crowds. The natural pool in the middle of the ocean, with its starfish and shallow waters, was a magical highlight. Once on the island, we had a private area to relax under the palm trees, away from the busier public beaches. The lunch provided was delicious. It’s the perfect way to explore this tropical paradise at your own pace.

Beautiful Yacht Adventure in Saona Island National Park

Published on Dec, 2024

I booked this trip in December 2024, and it was the highlight of my vacation. The entire excursion was flawless, from the seamless pickup to the Caribbean yacht charter. Big kudos to Amelia for keeping us updated every step of the way, it made the whole process so smooth and stress-free. The Yacht we had was stunning - exactly as described - and the crew was incredibly welcoming and professional. Our host did an amazing job pointing out the great snorkeling spot and ensuring we were well taken care of throughout the day. We had the chance to explore the national park around Saona, swim in crystal-clear waters, and enjoy a delicious BBQ buffet on the island. Every moment was so memorable! I’ll definitely be recommending your services to my friends. Thank you for this unforgettable experience!

Awesome Experience

Published on Dec, 2024

The trip went well as planned. We enjoyed the trip. Guide Vasiliy is good at English. Kids enjoyed snorkeling and the lagoon is excellent.

A day in Paradise we’ll never forget

Published on Dec, 2024

Everything was thoughtfully planned, making it effortless for us to relax and enjoy. Our boat offered stunning views - it felt like out of a postcard. When we reached Saona Island, the beach was like everyone said: sand like powdered sugar, and the water so clear it felt unreal. The day ended with a visit to the natural pool - a serene, shallow lagoon where we had cool drinks (you have to try Rum with Sprite, called ‘Santo Libre’) and spotted starfish right next to our feed! Our host was nice and spoke fluent english and spanish what was very good when we were shopping fresh coconuts and piña colada on the island! If you’re after a worry-free escape from your all inclusive resort, this tour is it.

Amazing Day on Caribbean Sea Saona Island

Published on Nov, 2024

What an unforgettable experience! From start to finish, everything was seamless and well-organized. Our host, was incredible — so friendly and knowledgeable, making sure we felt safe and comfortable the entire time. The transfer was smooth and on time, and with the private boat we had stunning views along the way. The highlight was definitely the pristine beach on Saona Island. We ended the day floating in the crystal-clear waters of the natural pool, sipping rum cocktails, and even spotting some starfish. The crew went above and beyond to ensure we had the best experience. Highly recommend this tour for anyone looking for a private, hassle-free, and absolutely gorgeous day in paradise! Would 100% book again.
