“Everything was lovely, the only thing that bugged me was that you spent like 25 mins at the snorkelling spot with nice water and then they took you to this natural pool, which was really just greenish water that looks like lake water and you spent over an hour there and it's pretty shallow, it wasn't bad just wish we spent more time at the snorkeling area, also the music is VERY loud but if you don't mind then it shouldnt be a problem, the staff were amazing tho and always kept the vibes good, the people taking pictures on board were very nice but do note that the pictures…”

2.Catamaran Booze Cruise, Snorkeling & Punta Cana Coast View

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 145 reviews · from $89 per person Top rated

Spend about three and a half hours off Punta Cana on a catamaran with roundtrip transfers, reef snorkeling, tropical fruit, Dominican snacks, and unlimited national drinks for adults. A swimming guide leads the snorkel stop, then the crew turns the boat into a music-filled party before serving drinks in the shallow natural pool at Bavaro Beach.

“This trip was really fun- although it was a bit unorganized. There were other excursions in the middle of ours- parasailing and the shark and stingray diving- so we had to sit and wait and that was a little bit weird. The snorkeling and the natural pool was amazing and the after party was really fun. Although, they ran out of beer!!!!!!!!!”
