Itinéraire
Fréquemment visité par des centaines de touristes, ce banc de sable est un joyau de la nature, un véritable paradis dans les Caraïbes. Il est difficile de connaître sa dimension exacte, car il se contracte et se dilate en fonction des saisons et des courants océaniques, contrairement à ce qu'indique sa position, dans l'un des lieux les plus arides de la République dominicaine. Votre excursion à Cayo Arena vous offre une merveilleuse aventure au départ de Puerto Plata, dans des bus confortables climatisés, conduits par des chauffeurs expérimentés et en compagnie de guides professionnels. Dirigez-vous vers le nord de la République dominicaine et préparez-vous à découvrir un trajet avec de nombreux magnifiques paysages et des montagnes verdoyantes jusqu'à Punta Rusia, un pittoresque village de pêcheurs sur la côte de Puerto Plata. Une fois arrivé à Puerto Plata, à La Isabela Bay, vous embarquerez sur un bateau qui vous conduira jusqu'à Cayo Arena. Montez à bord d'un hors-bord moderne, et admirez ainsi la flore et la faune marines, et visitez le parc national en naviguant parmi les mangroves offrant une grande diversité de couleurs naturelles magnifiques. Si vous avez de la chance, vous découvrirez un célèbre mammifère, le lamantin. Cet animal est également connu sous le nom de vache de mer ! Après avoir passé 45 minutes à profiter de cette excursion inoubliable, nous arriverons à Cayo Arena. Là, vous disposerez de temps libre pour pratiquer le snorkeling et observer de nombreux poissons multicolores, prendre des photos, faire une baignade rafraîchissante dans des eaux transparentes, bavarder avec les pêcheurs qui viennent sur l'île ou vous détendre sur le sable fin.
Après une journée complète à Cayo Arena, vous serez raccompagné à votre hôtel de Puerto Plata.

Lousy, the tour was never done, it was cancelled last minute and they warned until later and because I asked them. I won't reapply for a tour with them.
Querido visitante, Gracias por compartir sus comentarios con nosotros. Normalmente cuando se cancela una excursión el cliente es informado a través de la web, por email o a través de su agencia, lamentamos que no haya tenido la oportunidad de ver este aviso con anticipación.
You've sent me an email asking me to review this trip, which YOU cancelled only 12 hours before and to which I've not had a refund yet. This was 1 tour we were really looking forward to. We did this trip 20 years ago and it was fantastic. Such a shame you cancelled it.
Dear Traveler, we are sorry to hear that you were unable to join us on the tour, which was cancelled for reasons beyond our control. If you have not yet received your refund please contact us at contact@runnersadventures.com. We are sorry for the inconvenience.
We booked this trip on our Celebrity Cruise with a port stop in Puerto Plata. The bus ride to the boat was beautiful and Santarino shared a lot of informative tidbits of history and information about the Dominican Republic along the way. We arrived at the beach and boarded the catamaran to the island and enjoyed the trip along with fresh fruit, rum punch, and fun music. The island itself was stunning and we were given snorkeling masks to see some of the beautiful wildlife. We got several amazing pictures and were able to mingle with some incredibly friendly locals as well as others from our cruise. After the island, we had a delicious lunch made by incredibly welcoming locals back at the waterfront resort. The bus driver, Manny was efficient and friendly and Santorino was also very friendly, welcoming, and informative. If you’d like to experience a trip that takes you “off the beaten path” with a truly authentic, unforgettable trip, do this!!!
Julio was an amazing tour guide! Very friendly and personable. Originally we were worried about the two hour commute to and from the island but Julio made it enjoyable. He educated us about the island and gave history facts. Manuel was able to take us safely to and from the island. We all felt completely safe with the two of them. On the boat it was a great time! We had great staff and great food. All the drinks were made from fresh fruit! We enjoyed snorkeling and taking pictures! Julio and Manuel made sure we are on schedule! I would highly recommend attending a trip with them two as your tour guides! Thank you again!
This was honestly one of the best trips ever! Julio y Roberto son magnificos (Julio and Roberto are Magnificent - I don’t speak Spanish lol). They made the trip so much fun! They made sure to make us feel comfortable and we learned so much history as well. The water was so clean and blue. And the food was so fresh and delicious. 100/10 experience, will do this again!
Yes, the bus ride is LONG from Puerto Plata, but its totally worth it. The snorkelling is fantastic. The reef is beautiful. The schools of fish that come to feed when you have bananas is just beautiful... there are sea urchins further out along the reef. We were on the island on a Tuesday, and apparently the day prior there were hundreds of people from cruise ships... so maybe ask your provider to ensure that you avoid the cruise ship crowds, because that number of people would detract from the experience. I brought my own snorkel gear, as did my family, so I don't know if any equipment is ever provided...
We made a trip to Paradise Island. It's super nice there and a lot of fun to snorkel. We did the normal tour (not VIP) and thought it was great.
Yes, bus commute is long but it's totally worth it! Beautiful island with crystal clear water.Good snorkeling.Glad we did Vip so we enjoyed food and drinks on our catamaran.Must see if you are in Puerto Plata area.
So beautiful. Some of the prettiest water I have ever seen. They fed a great lunch and had some fruit for snacks and had lots of drink. I would recommend this trip
We did the VIP snorkeling adventure which included bus transport to the marina, yacht transport to the island, snacks, open bar on the boat, island time, a boat ride through the mangroves and lunch. We enjoyed our time, but the transport was rough. If you get motion sick, I would urge a different excursion. My son and I both ended up having to take dramamine for the ride home. It's about an hour and a half one way via bus, then you get about 90 minutes of island time, then lunch (which didn't happen until about 2pm). The island was beautiful, but I don't think we would do this excursion again.
