Punta Cana Sailing Cruise

There are many outdoor activities to explore in Punta Cana, but a catamaran snorkeling and sailing cruise is at the top of everyone’s list. These cruises allow you to enjoy the breathtaking sites that are abundant in Punta Cana. Spend the day sailing along some of the world’s most beautiful beaches and coastlines and snorkel at colorful coral reefs full of hundreds of tropical fish. Our guides take you along the beautiful coastlines lined with exotic palm trees to some of the best snorkeling areas and eventually to a shallow area named the Natural Pool. Here you can wade into crystal clear water that only goes up to your chest. You can take in the sun, sip on a cocktail, and chill out to the sounds of our local rhythms.
📍 Standard Itinerary Highlights
Most 2-to-3 hour sailing tours follow a classic "coastal cruise" route:

1-Reef Snorkeling: A stop at the Bávaro Reef or Cabeza de Toro. These areas are protected, offering calm waters filled with tropical fish and coral nurseries.

2-Coastal Sailing: Cruising past the palm-lined white sands of Bávaro Beach and Cabo Engaño, where the Atlantic Ocean meets the Caribbean Sea.

3-The Natural Pool: The highlight of almost every trip. This is a shallow sandbar in the middle of the ocean where the water is only waist-deep. Most boats set up a floating bar here so you can enjoy drinks while standing in the turquoise water.
✨ Essential Tips
Morning vs. Afternoon: Morning cruises usually have calmer seas and better visibility for snorkeling. Afternoon cruises are better if you want a "sunset" vibe on the way back.

What to Bring: Reef-safe sunscreen, a towel, sunglasses, and a waterproof phone case. We include all snorkel gear and life jackets.

Motion Sickness: If you are prone to seasickness, catamarans are much more stable than single-hull boats, but it is still wise to take precautions as the Atlantic side can have some swells.
