Panoramic views of Miches and Anamuya mountains. Sail the ocean on a double-decker catamaran to see the magnificent humpback whales. Arrive at beautiful Bacardi Island, where you will enjoy a tasty lunch and free time on the beach.

Description of the experience

Humpback whales are regular visitors to Samaná Bay. Every year, from mid-January to mid-April, these huge mammals leave the arctic to mate and give birth in the protected bay on the east coast of the Dominican Republic. The whales have been wintering in this region for centuries.

This is evidenced by the ancient Taino cave painting in nearby Los Haitises National Park depicting blowing whales. The humpback whale is an aquatic mammal known for its vivacity and song. They can reach a length of 15 meters and weigh up to 30 tons.

Our tour begins by taking the new road in one of our modern equipped transports, a one hour trip observing the countryside along the coast and the Anamuya mountain range and heading to the fishing village of Cañitas.

Embark on our comfortable boat and enjoy the trip to the Humpback Whale sanctuary. We sail to Cayo Levantado, a beautiful island in the middle of the blue and turquoise water of Samana Bay and enjoy lunch on the beach. Take some time to relax and swim before the return trip to Cañitas.

• Sail the beautiful bay of Samana in the most comfortable double-decker luxury catamaran.

• Explore the island and contemplate the rich biodiversity of the area.
