Very nice excursion, it takes all day. Sunscreen, sunglasses, towels, and a change of clothes are necessary. Everything else is provided. Bring a waterproof case for your cell phone and goggles to the natural pool, the starfish and some fish are incredible. The food was a 6, but our hotel was a 10. Depending on the date it may rain during the entire excursion, check the forecast, luckily we moved it one day.
We left our hotel in Punta Cana heading to Bayahibe where we took the catamaran to Saona Island. Our guide most known by Mama Lina was exceptional. We were given a little snack in some boxes before we boarded. The catamaran trip was super fun with lots of music and drink, more precisely rum. Before reaching the island, a stop was made for snorkeling and another at the natural pools. Even though it hasn't been long, this excursion is worth the experience. On the island we had the buffet lunch (simpler and Dominican food). The return was made on a speedboat. I advise you to use sunscreen a lot because only the air burns. It was very worth it, I repeated this tour several times.
We were received by the wonderful Ângela, she was sensational. We thank you very much for the affection and care that Ângela had for us. We will return. Thank you
It’s was very good experience we enjoyed. Only problem were we didn’t book taxi with them it was hard to get taxi back from Bayahíbe beach which charged is triple amount what we paid in the morning.
I don’t recommend this tour. The beach they take you to is so crowded, food was gross. Lots of changing boats which made it extremely difficult with children.
Javier and Angela, fantastic!! Very friendly !!!
My wife and I had a great experience with Scuba Caribe from booking 2 excursions to returning afterwards. We met Jose (M&M) poolside at Riu Palace. At first we were very indecisive as to whether we wanted to book a trip but after talking for awhile, we decided to give it a try with the VIP experience (the lobster lunch sold us). We ended up going in the morning and the bus and guide (Vivi) was very prompt and professional. It was very difficult to understand everything that was said since most was in Spanish, but Vivi made sure that everyone understood what was going on and what to expect. The second trip we took was a 4 hour fishing trip. I can not remember the deck hands name, but he was very great as well. He did the majority of the work and ensured we were doing fine expecially with the 5-7 foot waves we experienced. We had 1 young lady that got very ill from the ride and had to return her and her husband back to shore. The captain stayed out for an extra hour to compansate everyone for going back to shore. I was looking forward to trying to catch a blue marlin, but ended up catching 2 Mahi Mahi and 1 baracuda instead. Overall, my wife and I had a very great experience with Scuba Caribe and the staff. If I am out that way again, I surely will book another excursion with them.
As someone who is well traveled this experience was not it. To start off, once we arrived to the boat docking we waited about an hour to leave. It was so chaotic, so many people trying to figure out which boat to get on and our tour guide was running all over the place. We kept getting on different boats to get to the island at one point we waited 30 mins to get on a boat that would take us closer to the island. There is one bottle of rum that they take and one bottle of coke and that is your drink on the boat. The food on the island was left uncovered and hundreds of people have access to the food there is no one covering the food resulting in flies on the food. The island has hundreds of people on it and most of the lounging chairs were taken. It was not a fun experience and I hate that it took up my whole day. The workers work hard but there is a lot of room for improvement.
I come to say from Argentina that Iván Fernández was peace and tranquility on a trip where there was fear about going to another country for the first time. Congratulations Iván!! And I always recommend him
It was a wonderful experience, we loved everything! It was like the deal. Our Jesus guide and driver Javier were wonderful.
