Google, january 2024.

The best we had in Punta Cana! The boat, the crew, the food, everything was amazing. We had the nicest time on the water with the crew and visiting the beach. There was 4 stops (snorkeling, dolphins sightseeing, beach and natural pool) during our 3 hour boat trip. We had a great time and would definitely recommend!

James Zeigler

One of the best moments my wife.and I had on the entire trip. Book a boat trip and enjoy yourselves cause there’s absolutely nothing like it. The entertainment, the laughter, the drinks, the scenery and the crew as well as the people with you is simply priceless.

Jordan Reichmann

We took an all day excursion and had a blast. They had us all singing and dancing. Someone lost their wedding ring on our trip and the captain of the boat didn’t hesitate to dive down and found it within 5 minutes. ABOVE AND BEYOND!

Tara Cournoyer

Went on private catamaran with a group of us- drinks ate some food, stopped at private island and natural pool Had the best time and the views were amazing. Definitely would recommend.

We did the private party boat for 6 hours and our group had such a good time! Memories were made! The company was very accommodating in every aspect.

This was the highlight of our holiday, so much fun and the team worked so hard to make sure we had a good time. Pick up was on time and waiting to take us back . The Photos were superb although a little expensive ( I should probably have tried to get a discount). There were 6 of us on a private tour and we can recommend it 100 percent.

What you can expect

We're taking you to the superstar of offshore islands in the Dominican Republic—Saona Island. Think sun, sand, booze, boats, and bikinis! You can thank us later, but for now let us tell you about the ridiculously beautiful Saona Island.

The first European boat to dock at Saona was Christopher Columbus’ in 1494, and Saona has not ceased to amaze visitors for the last 500+ years! Saona is not a tiny off-shore key—the beach stretches as far as the eye can see. This quintessential Caribbean island serves up the quintessential Caribbean scenery, with ivory sands lined by rows of swaying palms.

Race to the island in a speedboat that includes a stop in a waist-deep natural swimming pool of transparent waters. If you're lucky, you may even see some starfish! Once you arrive Isla Saona, you have so many choices—wade in the turquoise waters, visit the open bar, dance merengue, take a nap on a beach lounge chair, play volleyball, indulge in a typical Dominican lunch of chicken, pork, rice, beans, salad and fruit, or walk the coastline. Take your time and do it all!

We'll hit the Caribbean Sea on a speedboat and slowly cruise you back to the mainland on a spacious catamaran. Oh, there’s also music, dancing, and an open bar. This is the Caribbean, folks. It's an all-inclusive, full-day outing to Saona Island—and you need some time away from your Punta Cana resort. You get the boat, the open bar, and the food. Oh, and we pick you up and drop you off at your lobby. That is easy!

Find Saona Island

External links.

Saona Island is one of the most beautiful destinations on the planet, and the secret is out - this remote, pristine paradise has become one of the focal points of the Dominican Republic’s  tourism boom, and now attracts about one million visitors every year.

Happily, this paradise isn’t in danger of becoming a parking lot - the whole island is protected as part of the Cotubanamá National Park. The only buildings you’ll find on the island are the two tiny settlements of Catuano, a Navy base on the western edge of the island, and Mano Juan, the main town located to the south. Thanks to the protections in force on the island, Mano Juan is still a sleepy fishing village, and its traditional wooden houses painted in different colors are part of the island’s charm.

What to expect on a boat trip to Isla Saona

Most Isla Saona tours take you there by speedboat or catamaran and depart from Bayahibe (although you can also set off from Bavaro, Punta Cana , Cap Cana and even Santo Domingo). Traveling by speedboat will get you to Saona faster, while catamarans offer a more leisurely journey - you can walk around onboard comfortably and see more of the coastline as it glides by.

Traveling to Saona by boat gives you the best chance to admire the bird-thronged mangroves along the coastline, the deserted beaches, some of the park’s eight emerged coral reefs and almost 400 grottos.

Most tours, whether by speedboat or catamaran, will stop to let you off for a swim in the biggest natural pool in the Dominican Republic - a huge expanse of shallow sea in the Catuano strait that separates Isla Saona from the mainland, with a floor of silky-soft pure white sand and unbelievably bright-turquoise water. Many tours provide snorkelling gear so you can get up close and personal with starfish and schools of colorful tropical fish.

From the natural pool site, it’s another 20 minutes to Saona Island proper. If your tour didn’t include lunch aboard the catamaran, then you can expect lunch on arrival. The buffet lunch is a great introduction to Dominican delicacies featuring fresh fish and shellfish, chicken, plantains, rice, juicy tropical fruit and exotic rums and cocktails as well as a standard party bar.

If swimming in paradise isn’t quite enough, you can liven things up with a game of beach volleyball or don fins for some more snorkelling.

Where to stay

Because Isla Saona’s status as a pristine paradise depends on its protection from new tourist megaplexes, you won’t find anywhere to stay on the island itself. Instead, your best bet is to stay at one of the many resorts or boutique hotels in La Romana , Bayahibe or Punta Cana .

Getting there

Saona Island lies offshore of the southeastern tip of mainland Dominican Republic. Dead south of the La Altagracia province, politically Saona belongs to Altagracia’s western neighbor, La Romana.

Getting to La Romana from the capital city of Santo Domingo takes approximately 2 hours by car. From La Romana to Saona Island, travel time varies enormously depending on how you decide to get here.

You’ll find more than a dozen tour companies offer public and private tours , with many offering extras like lunch, an open bar, hotel pick-up and drop-off, scuba-diving and live entertainment. Shop around for the best tour by asking agencies what extras they offer. Prices vary according to the agency and the extras included, and sometimes how you book, but you can expect to pay between USD $50 - $100 for a round trip.

You can also get to Saona by helicopter straight from Punta Cana . Helicopter flights take 25 minutes and start at USD $299. The view from the air is other-worldly - in fact, you’ll be flying close to where the helicopter scenes in the original Jurassic Park were filmed!

Catamaran to Saona Island

Catamaran Saona Island

Catamaran Tour to Saona Island

In the early morning, dozens of beautiful catamarans dot the Bayahibe shoreline waiting to take anxious tourists to the stunning shores of Saona Island. Most of these tourists come from Punta Cana but some stay at local Bahayibe hotels as well. As long as you are using a reputable tour operator you should be more than pleased with the quality of the catamarans cruising you out to or back from Isla Saona. Normally, Saona catamarans include all the necessary amenities for a comfortable and enjoyable day out on the Caribbean Sea. A large, covered dance area, animation team, beat pumping sound systems, bathrooms and a wide front net to soak up the sun and hover just above the water line as the cat moves steadily along. Open bar is normally the biggest draw on Saona Catamarans with dark, rich Dominican rum, beer, soda, juice and water.

Saona Island Tropical Catamaran Charter

The catamaran ride is normally the highlight for everyone's Isla Saona trip. Even more so than the beach! The reason being is mostly because of the animation professionals. These are trained animation and dancing teams that really know how to get the party started and get you up and dance! Visitors always get a crash course in latin music dancing like merengue, salsa and the Dominican Republic's own homegrown sound of Bachata. And, with open bar, shyness seems to fade away for everyone.

Booze cruises and Punta Cana party boats

 Let’s start with the type of boat tour in Punta Cana which is geared more towards those of you who’d like to party, dance and drink throughout the day: the booze cruises and party boats in Punta Cana.

You can find our experiences with the booze cruises below, but let’s start with some of the best party boats in Punta Cana.

The best party boats and booze cruises in Punta Cana 

 Most of the Punta Cana booze cruises are pretty similar – you can find the detailed itinerary with our experiences below. What separates the amazing tours from the okay or not-so-good party boat excursions are usually the staff, the logistics and the entertainment. Here is a selection of the best party boats and booze cruises in Punta Cana.

Best-rated Punta Cana party boat tour

 Verified reviews (not those random ones on some platforms) are a great way to see if a tour is worth the money. For this best-rated party boat excursion in Punta Cana this is the truth as more than 90% of the guests are rating this tour as excellent. With a 4.79 rating this is indeed the best party boat in Punta Cana. Check below for the things to expect when booking this booze cruise.

Duration: approx. 4 hours Snorkeling included: yes Services included: transfers, snacks, drinks, entertainment team Price: check current rates and promotions here * Rating: 4.79/5.00 (as of September 2023)

The beautiful coastline on a party boat tour and booze cruise in Punta Cana

Most popular booze cruise in Punta Cana

 There is another booze cruise in Punta Cana which is extremely popular – the one from SeaPro Divers. This tour company is one of the most established ones in Punta Cana and stands for safety, perfect organization and trustfulness. They exactly know what they have been doing for many years which is one reason why their party boat is so successful.

Duration: approx. 3-4 hours Snorkeling included: yes Services included: transfers, snacks, drinks, entertainment team Price: check current rates and promotions here * Rating: 4.72/5.00 (as of September 2023)

 Ok, if the two Punta Cana party boat tours are not enough for you, there is a very special boat tour in Punta Cana you shouldn’t miss: the Punta Cana pirate ship. It is a huge pirate ship, exactly like the one you know from famous pirate movies. It is cruising along the coast of Bavaro and focuses on a unique entertainment show, obviously with a pirate theme. All of the staff members have pirate costumes as well so be prepared for an amazing show in a spectacular Caribbean setting. 

Duration: approx. 3.5 hours Snorkeling included: yes Services included: drinks, entertainment team Price: check current rates and promotions here * Rating: 4.45/5.00 (as of September 2023)

The huge and impressive pirate ship in Punta Cana

 Party boats and booze cruises are what most people are looking for when booking catamaran tours in Punta Cana. Sun, music and a lot of fun are what is promised – and you will get exactly this.

The itinerary of most Punta Cana party boats is very similar.

After a pick-up from your all-inclusive resort in Punta Cana , you’ll get shuttled to the area where the catamaran is leaving. This can be either Cortecito, Corales or Bibijagua, all located in the center of Bavaro Beach . Here you might have to wait a few (Dominican) minutes, depending on if other groups or transfers are going to join. Some tour operators (see it linked in the table above in the Punta Cana “party boat + booze cruise” section) have a particularly nice waiting area as you can see in the photo.

Waiting for a catamaran tour in Punta Cana can also be not that bad ...

Once you board your Punta Cana catamaran, the cruise is going to start. You head towards the ocean, can enjoy the Caribbean breeze and see the impressive coastline of Punta Cana with all its all-inclusive resorts , endless beaches and coconut palm trees.

 Your first stop is a small reef not too far away from your starting point – less than a mile, so you still can see the coastline. Here you get your snorkeling equipment, head into the water and can see some colorful fish. Depending on the time of the day, the boat trips attract the fish by feeding them bread. The last time fishes were there without additional feeding, which I preferred much more than attracting them with man-made food.

 As explained in my article about snorkeling in Punta Cana , don’t expect too much when it comes to this part of the Punta Cana booze cruise. While it is great for first-timers, you won’t be too impressed if you have already snorkeled in famous destinations around the world such as Belize, the Maldives, the southern Caribbean or the Red Sea. If your main objective is snorkeling, better choose one of the small group catamaran tours presented below which are heading to another, better reef in Punta Cana .

 However, snorkeling is also not why you are going on a booze cruise in Punta Cana, the party boat is what draws the attention. And this is right going to start after snorkeling when the alcohol starts flowing from the open bar (for security reasons, alcohol is not allowed before the snorkeling part). The cruise continues, music will make everyone moving and dancing and a few snacks are going to be prepared.

 Your next destination is the natural swimming pool, an area located between Bavaro Beach and Cabeza de Toro. It is a shallow area in the ocean, where you can stand in the water waist-deep and have fun enjoying your drinks and listening to music. Basically, all Punta Cana booze cruises are using this area to make a stop to party, so it can get busy (and loud) here. Even it is not the most authentic way to enjoy nature and the ocean, it is pretty cool to stand in the water, listening to party music, using slides to get into the water and getting served drinks from the open bar on some cool floating devices. There are worse places to enjoy your vacation in the Dominican Republic. 🙂

Catamaran tours in Punta Cana to the Natural Swimming Pool

 The stop at the natural swimming pool usually takes around an hour. On the way back, the crew of most party boats in Punta Cana is engaging all guests into some more fun and party through interactive games or dancing contests. Be prepared to have a blast and don’t head onto one of those booze cruises when expecting a family catamaran or a relaxed Punta Cana boat tour. Having fun, getting entertained and enjoying these kinds of excursions is all that counts on this type of catamaran tours in Punta Cana .

If you are looking for these kinds of Punta Cana boat excursions, check out the following offers:

Depending on your booking, there are morning and afternoon tours available. The whole duration of the trip including pick-up and drop-off at your hotel is usually around 3 to 4.5 hours, depending on the length of the transfer. The actual time on the party boat is usually around 2.5 to 3 hours. Group size can be anything from 30 to 80 people, depending on the capacity of the catamaran. Usually, the party boats in Punta Cana get pretty packed with people as this brings a better party vibe – and more money for the charter company.

Get on a catamaran in Punta Cana – all the things you need to know

 If you’re more into the more relaxed boat excursions in Punta Cana and if snorkeling is important for you, a catamaran is the better choice for you. While they also play music, focus on having fun on (and in) the water and serve alcohol, they go to a better and more abundant snorkeling reef and have usually smaller groups to ensure a more personalized service, especially the better-rated catamaran tours in Punta Cana. 

The best tours and excursions with catamarans in Punta Cana

 If you are looking for the best tours and excursions with a catamaran in Punta Cana, it is a similar process as for the party boats. The well-rated catamarans have better services, a more personalized service, smaller groups, better drinks and a general better overall experience, especially as those tours focus on the client and not necessarily on the money. 

 The good news here is that there are 3 catamaran tours which have been belonging to the best excursions in Punta Cana for many years. Year after year they are receiving top reviews with ratings close to perfection and indeed – these Punta Cana catamarans are the best you can find when looking for a fun-filled yet relaxed half-day tour from your resort in Punta Cana.

Small Group Snorkeling & Cruising Catamaran

 The Small Group Snorkeling & Cruising Catamaran is one of the peoples’ favorite tours in Punta Cana. There is a maximum of 16 guests which guarantees customized service. The catamaran boat is huge and is equipped with hammocks over the water and a SUP. Drinks are included and are also served in the water (except for snorkeling), same as snacks and fruits. 

Duration: approx. 3.5 hours Snorkeling included: yes Services included: transfers, snacks, drinks, entertainment team Price: check current rates and promotions here* Rating: 4.91/5.00 (as of September 2023)

You can also book this specific tour as a private catamaran tour here *.

Adults Only Snorkeling with Seafood Lunch

Catamaran tours in Punta Cana to the Natural Swimming Pool

 This Punta Cana catamaran tour is different and is absolutely worth your time and money. Even though this excursion is only running on a smaller motor-catamaran instead of the big and spacious sailing catamarans, it comes with some other unique perks: after snorkeling , they go to a small pristine beach, where you get served coconuts. Plus, a full and freshly prepared seafood lunch is included in this catamaran tour, which is prepared in their special floating kitchen. They also have a floating bar to serve you drinks in the water. And, last but not least, this is an adults-only tour in a small group, hence personalized service and good drinks are guaranteed. Oh, and in case I forgot, snorkeling at the restored reef is top-notch, much better than the snorkeling spot where all the Punta Cana party boats are going.

Duration: approx. 4 hours Snorkeling included: yes Services included: transfers, lunch, drinks, beach visit, entertainment team Price: check current rates and promotions here * Rating: 4.90/5.00 (as of September 2023)

You can also book this specific tour as a private catamaran here *.

 This is the family counterpart to the top-rated adults-only snorkeling boat trip in Punta Cana: a family-friendly snorkeling excursion on a catamaran with engines. It offers the same features, services and amenities as the adults-only tour described above. You just don’t go to the pristine beach but instead, the kids can enjoy a slide on the boat – the funniest way to get into the water. This is one of the best things to do with kids in Punta Cana .

Duration: approx. 4 hours Snorkeling included: yes Services included: transfers, lunch, drinks, entertainment team Price: check current rates and promotions here * Rating: 4.90/5.00 (as of September 2023)

 You might have gotten it already from the explanations and information above – the tours and excursions by catamaran in Punta Cana are pretty relaxed and easy-going. 

 You’re getting picked up at your resort in Punta Cana or your Airbnb in the area and getting transferred to either Cabeza de Toro or Bibijagua Beach, where most of the catamaran tours are starting. 

 The first part of the trip is some easy cruising over the ocean, where you can admire the coastline of the Dominican Republic. Your first stop will be the snorkeling spot, which is the much better reef at Cabeza de Toro compared to snorkeling where Punta Canas’ booze cruises are going ( Bavaro Reef ).

 After snorkeling, you are usually getting served the first drinks (alcoholic and non-alcoholic) before heading to the natural swimming pool or a pristine beach section. Enjoy the water, music, entertainment, drinks served in the water and some snacks before heading back to your point of origin (or before having lunch if you book the Punta Cana boat trip with seafood lunch).

 Most of the tours take around 4 hours, hence it is a half-day excursion in Punta Cana and perfect if you don’t want to be away from your resort for the entire day, like it is the case for example when you head out for a boat trip to Saona Island .

 If you are looking for something more relaxed and not exclusively focused on the party, it is highly recommendable to pay a little bit more for a Punta Cana catamaran which goes with smaller groups. Even they have a similar itinerary, they pay more attention to nature and the service, which allows for a more private experience. Therefore, check out the recommendations we have outlined above for the best catamaran tours in Punta Cana.

 And still, even with a catamaran boat heading off with smaller groups, you don’t miss out on the party, it is just less crowded. For example, the Punta Cana catamaran tour you can book here * heads off with a maximum of 16 people, but still plays perfect music to enjoy, dance and feel the Caribbean vibe while at the same time keeping the drinks flowing to get you animated. In the end, with this Punta Cana boat excursion, you will visit the natural pool as well, just with fewer people on your boat.

The best private catamarans in Punta Cana

 Of course, most of the Punta Cana boat tours mentioned above are also available as private catamaran in Punta Cana.  By booking your private boat rental for your Punta Cana excursion , you can enjoy many advantages:

  • You’ll have much smaller groups – just the people from your traveling party.
  • Even the number of possible stops are limited, you can adjust the itinerary according to your wishes – at least you can say how long you want to stay at each stop.
  • You don’t have any strangers on the boat in Punta Cana and can create the vibe you want.
  • The staff is just there for you, creating an exclusive experience. You get their full attention and they will try to cater to any preference you might have.
  • Drinks and snacks on the private catamaran will be exclusively for your group.
  • In case of any problem, you can always seek immediate help from the staff or the tour operator of your private catamaran tour in Punta Cana.
  • Pricing is very competitive. If you are traveling with a large family or a group of friends, the prices of a private catamaran can be cheaper than if booked individually. For example, if you are traveling in a group of 10 to 15, you can get a private catamaran in Punta Cana for as low as 50 USD per person – for a fully exclusive experience. In the widget below you are seeing some of the best private catamaran tours.

 Considering you are paying the same price (50-80 USD per person) as for the big shared booze cruises, a private party boat in Punta Cana is a perfect option for families and smaller groups.

 And even if you are a bigger group with 20 up to 80 people, a private catamaran tour in Punta Cana is the perfect experience as you can get the party going exclusively among your group. The itinerary with snorkeling and a natural swimming pool is similar to the description above in the booze cruise and party boat section.

There are plenty of options when you’re looking for a private catamaran in Punta Cana. To make the choice easier for you, we have selected a few remarkable tours in case you’re looking for a private boat rental in Punta Cana. All of them follow the itineraries outlined above, but usually it is possible to adjust them slightly according to the needs and preferences of your group.

The best sunset cruises in Punta Cana

People often ask us about sunset cruises in Punta Cana as an alternative to the typical catamaran tours during the day. Unfortunately, except if you book one of the private charters showed in the section above and ask explicitly if you can stay on the boat until 7 pm (sunset in Punta Cana usually is between 6.30 pm and 7.15 pm), there are no sunset cruises in Punta Cana. Most boats have to be back onshore at the latest at 6 pm, which is why a sunset cruise in Punta Cana is hard to realize. Furthermore, the colors of the ocean and the entire coastline are not as impressive after 5 pm which is why it is better to go during the day for the most beautiful photos.

The author Chris in the Dominican Republic

However, interestingly enough, some tour operators are pretending that their regular party boats are sunset cruises. I also see some of the Punta Cana catamaran tours writing “Enjoy watching the sunset on this fun-filled Punta Cana party boat” (or something similar) and on the same page, you see that they start their tours at 10 am and 2 pm, which means they finish by 1 pm respectively 5 pm – far away from the sunset hours.

The coastline in Punta Cana with its beautiful beaches

Another point why Punta Cana sunset cruises are difficult is because the sun sets in the west, but Punta Cana is located on the east coast of the Dominican Republic. So even you can see the sunset changing the sky into a riot of colors, you will never see this spectacular Caribbean postcard scene where the sun is plummeting as a red fireball into the sea. If this is what you want to see, better go to nearby Bayahibe .

Alternative options for Punta Cana Catamaran Tours

 Both islands are located on the south coast of the Dominican Republic, approx. one hour away from Punta Cana. Especially when you are looking for catamaran tours in Punta Cana with incredible crazy landscapes and sceneries, Saona and Catalina are the perfect destinations for you.

Compared to the booze cruises and party boats in Punta Cana described above, which are all half-day excursions, Isla Saona and Isla Catalina are full-day tours. As long as you can spare the time, those tours are the perfect option to get a glimpse into the beauty of the Dominican Republic.

The one and only Isla Saona, the most popular excursion in Punta Cana and the Dominican Republic

  Isla Saona is the most popular excursion in Punta Cana and leads you straight to paradise. The island is so gorgeous that it is hard to believe. Even there are a lot of tourists heading there, you definitely will find your perfect stretch of beach as there are plenty. The tours are usually done one way with a catamaran and one way with a speed boat, offering a perfect mix and a good alternative to the catamaran tours in Punta Cana. Furthermore, you stop at the natural swimming pool (which, to be honest, is much nicer than the one in Punta Cana) and get lunch during your Isla Saona excursion .

 There are many different tours to Saona Island, starting from as low as 60 USD incl. transfers from Punta Cana, but you can also book premium tours with personalized service * or posh catamarans. To get to know more about the details and all the different options, it is best to read the article about the best Isla Saona excursions from Punta Cana .

 On the other side, there is Isla Catalina . When it comes to natural beauty Isla Catalina scores at least 9 out of 10 points (and Isla Saona 11 out of 10 😉 ), considering you are visiting a wonderful island located in the Caribbean Sea. Furthermore, Catalina Island is the best Punta Cana catamaran alternative when it comes to snorkeling, as all Isla Catalina excursions include a stop at a reef which is better than the Punta Cana snorkeling .

Isla Catalina, a beautiful island on the south coast of the Dominican Republic

Same as for Isla Saona , Isla Catalina tours are starting around an hour away from Punta Cana and take the whole day, but transfers from Punta Cana are included for most excursions. To find the best deal, check out this comprehensive post about the best Isla Catalina excursions .

 What is your favorite way of exploring Punta Cana by catamaran? Do you already have some experience with Punta Cana boat tours? Or do you have any questions regarding the booze cruises and party boats in Punta Cana? Let me know in the comments, I am happy to respond!
