Small-Group Cruising and Snorkeling Catamaran Tour

1.Small-Group Cruising and Snorkeling Catamaran Tour

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 2,401 reviews · from $99Our pick

Review of Punta Cana’s small-group catamaran tour, with snorkeling, a sandbar floating bar, hotel pickup, drinks, snacks, and a 16-person limit.

“We had a fantastic snorkeling adventure with David & Manatee Mike!! They were expert hosts and made it a great experience. We were lucky enough to be the only two on the boat, so we got to talk to them more. The fresh guacamole, fruit, and drinks were amazing. Have David make you a pineapple margarita, it is delicious! We did two stops at a snorkel spot where we saw tons of fish and then at a sandbar where we got to hang out and relax. The tour ended with an opportunity to shop. Would definitely book this tour again. It was our favorite we’ve done in DR.”

Review of Punta Cana’s family-friendly catamaran tour with reef snorkeling, open bar, natural pool, beach stop, transfers, and snacks.

“The catamaran tour with snorkeling was fantastic! The team were friendly and very accommodating. They introduced the various members of the team and gave a clear explanation of what each guy did (Captain, bar guy, etc). The lunch was perfect (sandwiches, tortilla chips/salsa, fresh fruit, cake), drinks of all kinds were plentiful (at one point the drinks guy brought trays of drinks into the water for us to enjoy!). The snorkeling was handled very well. The boat had a slide (fun!) so half of the group went in the slide first while the others snorkeled then we swapped. We saw tons of fish on a reef. After that we went…”

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 232 reviews · from $69

Punta Cana party catamaran with snorkeling, a natural pool, music, dancing, snacks, an open bar, and dolphin views for $69.

“Music was way too loud but at least you could still enjoy it if you sat on the top. The boat crew were really fun and nice. The only thing they served for alcohol beverages was rum. It took forever to load everyone on the catamaran. The snorkeling is really not worth it, they take you too a place where multiple other boats are and you snorkel for like 15 minutes and barely see anything. The boat ride was beautiful though! We got picked up at 2 and back to the hotel at 7pm so plan on at least 5 hours.”
