Punta Cana: Saona Island Full-Day Tour
About this experience
Discover the breathtaking beauty of Saona Island, one of the Dominican Republic’s most famous natural attractions. Located within Cotubanamá National Park, this tropical paradise is known for its crystal-clear turquoise waters, white-sand beaches, swaying palm trees, and unforgettable Caribbean scenery.
Your adventure begins with convenient pickup from your hotel in Punta Cana, Bávaro, or Uvero Alto, followed by transportation to Bayahibe.

Upon arrival at Saona Island, enjoy several hours of free time to swim, sunbathe, walk along the beach, or simply relax beneath the palm trees. A traditional Dominican buffet lunch is served on the island, along with local drinks included throughout the day.
