Your day begins with a comfortable hotel pick-up to the marina in La Romana. After a short safety briefing, board a spacious motor-catamaran/boat and set course for Catalina’s protected marine area.

Our first highlight is snorkeling at “The Wall” (or an equivalent site chosen by the captain for best conditions). In crystal-clear water, you’ll float over coral formations that step down into deeper blue, home to colorful reef fish and, with luck, the occasional ray or turtle. Masks are included but we recommend bringing a more complete kit, and your guide will be in the water to assist beginners. Typical water visibility ranges 10–20 m with reef depths from ~5 m and beyond, so it’s great for first-timers and fun for experienced snorkelers.

Back on board, we continue to Catalina Island. As we approach, the sea turns that signature turquoise and a white-sand beach comes into view. You’ll have time to swim, sunbathe on a lounger, or stroll the shoreline before enjoying a Dominican lunch right on the beach (grilled meats, salads, rice, pasta, fresh fruit), plus drinks like water, sodas, beer, and rum. After lunch, more free time to relax, swim, or take photos.

In the afternoon, we cruise back toward the mainland. Your driver will be waiting for the return transfer to your hotel—memories full of reef colors and island vibes.

Note: The Captain Kidd “Quedagh Merchant” protected wreck lies off Catalina’s shore in shallow water. Access/visibility depends on sea conditions and park regulations; it’s not guaranteed on every departure.
