The Dominican Republic’s largest island, Saona Island, is off La Altagracia’s coast. The Cotubanamá National Park includes it. The island is known as the “pearl” of the Caribbean due to its stunning white-sand beaches flanked by palm groves.

After snorkeling, you will go to the island, where you can relax, sunbathe on the softest white sand, and have the most delicious lunch and drinks!

4. Samana VIP with Lemon Waterfall

On the territory of the Dominican Republic, due to the mountainous terrain, there are many waterfalls. But the most popular for a very long time remains El Limon or “Millionaires’ Waterfall”, located on the Samana Peninsula.

  • The Arroyo Chico stream falls off a cliff to create the El Limon waterfall. More specifically, the Limon River rises from the natural lake beneath the waterfall.
  • From the towns of Las Terrenas or Santa Barbara de Samana, travel along the Bulevar Turistico del Atlantico highway to the waterfall.
  • The waterfall was originally known as “Admiral’s Waterfall” (La Fuente de El Almirante), but due to the construction of a tourist route from the community of El Limon, it was decided to change its name to be the same as the community.
  • Since 1996, the park that encircles El Limon has been a protected natural area. It covers 18 km2.
  • Depending on the season, the waterfall and the lake below it contain varying amounts of water. You may typically see the most stunning, fully-flowing stream around December.

This is a rare chance to take a trip that includes stops at numerous wonderful destinations simultaneously! Cayo Levantado on Bacardi Island A wonderful chance to swim and explore the island; snap lots of vivid pictures!
