Venture into the beautiful Caribbean Sea waters on this diving experience in Catalina Island. You'll discover the fascinating underwater wildlife that dwells in its depths.
Description
Between 7 and 8 am, we'll pick you up from your hotel in Punta Cana to take you to the port of La Romana. From there, we'll board a boat and sail to Catalina Island's first dive site.
We'll first arrive at La Pared, a renowned underwater coral wall 100 meters (328 feet) deep. This 50-minute dive will take you to 18 meters (60 feet) to explore the area's biodiversity, including barracudas, hawksbill turtles, and seahorses.
Next, we'll head to the Aquarium for a second 50-minute dive, where you can admire wildlife like lionfish, frogfish, balloonfish, surgeonfish, and butterflyfish.
After diving, we'll go to Catalina Island beach for a buffet lunch featuring chicken, pork chops, beans, rice, salad, and assorted beverages. You may use snorkeling gear to explore after lunch.
Finally, between 3 and 3:30 pm, we'll return you to your hotel.
