Leaving from the Punta Cana hotels we'll enjoy the beautiful landscapes of the Oriental Mountain Range north of Punta Cana before arriving in the small fishing village of Miches at the southern shores of Samaná Bay. Here, you'll enjoy a light breakfast before being transported, by boat, to Cayo Levantado, also known as Bacardi Island because of it closely resembles the beaches Bacardi Rum once used in their famous commercials. Cayo Levantado is nothing short of a tropical oasis - a small island in the middle of the ocean with turquoise waters and white sands. Lunch will be served in this beautiful tropical setting.
From Cayo Levantado, the excursion continues, by boat, deeper into the Samaná Bay to observe Humpback whales. Sightings are incredibly common and the whales spend a fair amount of time on the water surface! Enjoy the jumps and playfulness of these incredible creatures, making for unforgettable photographs.
