282 reviews

Dive into a world of difference with this eco-conscious 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, making every moment of your adventure count towards marine preservation. Maria, one of our local guides, says, 'You're not just a tourist here; you're part of the solution. 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 the urgency of protecting 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.

    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.

    My husband and myself loved this. The crew were super friendly and attentive. It was my husband’s first time snorkelling, and he was like a big a big kid. Didn’t think we’d get him out the sea!!! Seen the stingrays, turtles and so many fish, just wonderful. Plus, the money helps towards the coral conservation. Would recommend the surf and turf for your lunch.
