We were the first persons who were picked up with the van and then drove for a good hour around Punta Cana to pick up others.. Tour guide was very friendly and spoke three languages. Snorkling was nothing special, we saw 5 fish spicies and few corals. Catalina island was nice

All in all, the tour is quite nice, but we expected more from it. You drive from the port of Bayahibe (where you are really harassed by vendors) to the island about an hour and a half by catamaran. The ride is really cool because the team creates a lot of atmosphere. On the way there, you will stop at a place to snorkel. We were told we had 40 minutes but were called out of the water after 30 minutes. Then you drive on to the island, where you have a small stretch of beach. So you don't see much of the island, only a tiny part. Several people want to sell you something there again. There is then a lunch buffet on site. There are a lot of mosquitoes there. If you wanted, you could continue snorkeling on the beach, but the way into the water is quite rocky there. After about 2 hours you start back again.

Small communication problems on the pick-up time. Nevertheless, great activity! Large catamaran so not the feeling of being on it a lot. Snorkeling in a beautiful spot, nice crew, good meal on site, nothing to say
