Saint-Domingue : Excursion d'une journée sur l'île de Saona, tout compris

As part of the Eastern National Park, it is an area with incomparable nature, where you can enjoy mangroves, coral reef and beaches like Palmilla, with incredible yellow sand and surrounded by aracaceae palm trees. You will be able to enjoy the fantastic starfish, as they are everywhere and are the true queens of the place. Saona Island is the turning point for many visitors to Punta Cana and we are sure that if you visit it, it can be one of the best moments of your vacation!

It is the perfect excursion to do with adults, with children, friends or a partner. Once on the island you can walk through a natural pool in the Caribbean Sea, since the water on Saona Island has no waves at all and only covers up to your knees. In addition, you can enjoy eating next to such paradise, drink a mojito and even dance with our entertainment team!

Located 19 kilometers (12 miles) south of the mainland, Saona Island’s picture-perfect beaches attract more visitors than all of the country’s national parks combined. A protected site spanning 110km² (42-square mile) and part of Cotubanamá National Park, Saona is a dream tropical escape, where long stretches of brilliant white sand and their giant coconut trees seem to melt into iridescent turquoise waters.

Visitors can take day trips to enjoy the beaches, through a myriad of options ranging from speedboat to catamaran. Riding along Saona’s stunning coastline scenery alone is worthwhile. Most trips leave out of Bayahíbe village, from its small waterfront area. Stops in Saona include a swim at Palmilla, a white stretch with a wide natural pool, and at Mano Juan, the only inhabited portion of the island. Saona Island is also the DR’s most important turtle-nesting site.
