Catalina Island boat tour with snorkelling and Dominican lunch

4.1/5
7 reviews

Hop aboard for a full-day boat trip to Catalina Island, a stone's throw from the south coast of the mainland. You'll drop anchor to snorkel around one of the Dominican Republic's most bustling coral reefs, La Pared, where you can spot a colourful carpet of live corals, crabs and tropical fish. Then, you'll head to dry land, where you can enjoy some beach time and tuck into lunch, Dominican-style. Think fresh grilled meats, rice and salads served with your choice of beer, rum, or soft drinks.

    A good safe location was chosen to snorkel, The coral was full of colour from the plants and fish swimming, we had sufficient time in the water and it was easy to get on and off the boat

    The stuff who was from TUI worked with the guys from the island and he booking drinks for people who when we get there they gone waiting for us like Pinacolada and coconut with rum for 10$ each i didn't wanted to pay extra 10$ for drink and I passed so when we get there he charge the people for 10$ each for drink. But when you ask by yourself the price is just 5$ and he reap people off 5$ each there was at least 20 people. And when you go there just cash on you card is 20% plus

    Great experience, guide was great, super boat trip and then snorkelling. Then back on the boat for a stay on the island. Easy access to everything, good food and incredible beach.

    Availability of drinks not great. No bottled water. Organisation at the marina was poor but guide seemed to know what was going on. Stop at warehouse shop unnecessary but all part of the money making. No pressure sales though. Beach and food were lovely though. Expensive gift hut if you want that.

    The organisation was outstanding, our transport arrived to take us to the communal coach exactly on time. The tour guide was friendly and fun, extremely good at dipping between Spanish and English and very knowledgeable, giving a lot of information about the country as we travelled. The catamaran was super, snacks and unlimited drinks provided. I suffer with an arthritic knee and once aware, the crew were amazing at helping me to navigate embarking and disembarking boats, the island is beautiful
