Punta Cana coral reef restoration and snorkelling experience

4.7/5
285 reviews

Dive into a world of difference with this tour in Punta Cana – a perfect blend of fun, learning and hands-on action to help save our seas. Not only will you get to snorkel through the colourful underwater world, but you'll also play a pivotal role in coral restoration efforts. Maria, one of our local guides, says, 'Under the guidance of our expert team, you'll learn about and participate in cutting-edge techniques aimed at rehabilitating and restoring coral reefs'.

Kick off your experience by joining our experts at the Scientific Interpretation Centre and Coral Lab, where you'll learn about coral gardening through methods like microfragmentation. This hands-on activity, guided by our knowledgeable guides, will help you to discover the intricate beauty and vital importance of these ecosystems. It's an eye-opening experience that highlights why we need to protect these underwater treasures.

After doing your part for the planet, strap on your snorkel gear and plunge into two distinct coral gardens on a guided snorkelling tour, filled with tropical fish and sea creatures. Wind down your impactful day with some chill time at Coco Beach, where refreshments like the ‘coco loco' – an ice-cold coconut drink – are as cool as the ocean breeze.

    A fantastic, educational highlight of my Punta Cana holiday! As a disabled guest with visual and mobility impairments, I was grateful for the crew’s kindness, patience and help. With snorkel, flippers and buoyancy aid, I saw beautiful fish beneath me and even tried the boat slide! Meal choices were clear before boarding, and everything was well organised. Learning about coral reef restoration and marine conservation was fascinating. I felt safe, included and cared for. Highly recommended!

    We thought overall it was a great trip and it is one of the best we’ve been on. We all had a good time and the staff were very helpful, accommodating, and had interesting information about the coral. The food was lovely as well and far better than what we were expecting! We would definitely do this trip again in future.
