Pristine Catalina Island is your destination on this tour – the Dominican Republic's very own castaway isle. We'll zoom across the Caribbean by speedboat and stop en route to snorkel La Pared reef – a garden of coral, sponge and exotic fish. Then, we'll hit the island's palm-fringed paradise beach for a few rum cocktails and a snooze in the sun.

Unfortunately the boat broke down but another boat came quickly and they extended our snorkel and paid for our cabs home

Guide practically ignored us as we were the only couple speaking English. He spoke to all other nationalities at length explaining who knows what

I would speed up boarding and assembling the group. There is no point to pickup ppl at 7:30 am before the breakfast time for the departure of the boat at 9+ am

La experiencia espectacular, la isla hermosa. Como mejorar diria la explicacion sobre como realizar snorquel o utilizar la mascara para la gente q nunca lo realizo. Se asume supongo q la gente sabe y mi acompañante se asusto al tragar agua por no saber usar el equipo

Nos gustó mucho el guia, Pedro, la atencion de los chicos de la lancha. No me gustó la informalidad cuando se postergó el tour debido a la suspension por clima, hablé con quien me vendio el tour, me dijo que lo dejara para martes siguiente y mi nombre nunca aparecio en la lista del martes, tuvieron que llamae ahi mismo para ver si cabiamos, no hubo problema, pero deberia ser mas formal el cambio por cancelacion sobre todo si es por parte de la compañía

Just a snorkeling trip. On the description is says we will see a island. Thats a lie
