This snorkel area boasts the most interesting coral reef in the island with a diverse array of marine life including live corals, fish, crustaceans, and other species. It is protected and designated as a National Park.
After snorkeling, the tour continues to Isla Catalina, where guests can enjoy its crystal clear waters and white sand beaches in a cozy environment. A traditional Dominican lunch with drinks is served to make it a relaxing and enjoyable day.
