Approx 12 Hours
Los Haitises & Montaña Redonda

Dolphin Encounter
Meet a dolphin up close with no swimming required. Standing on a submerged platform, you and a small group spend 50 minutes with a single dolphin — a kiss, a fin shake, a belly rub — while a trainer explains how they live and what they eat. It's the gentlest way to get face-to-fin, and ideal for families and non-swimmers.
Approx 4 Hours
Dolphin Explorer
Get in the water for the full swim: 50 minutes with a dolphin in a spacious dolphinarium, sharing kisses, fin shakes, a belly rub, a belly ride and a boogie-board push across the water. Professional photographers capture every moment while you make a memory that lasts a lifetime.
Approx 4 Hours
Dolphin Royal
The top-tier dolphin swim: two dolphins instead of one, a smaller group of no more than 10, and a full hour in the water. Ride a dorsal fin, get launched by a foot push, and share kisses and belly rubs — the most intimate, memorable dolphin experience in Punta Cana.
Approx 6 Hours
Dominican Winter Baseball
David Ortiz, Pedro Martínez, Albert Pujols — and today's Juan Soto, Vladimir Guerrero Jr. and Manny Machado. The Dominican Republic produces baseball legends like nowhere else. Catch a Dominican Winter League game with the Toros del Este and you'll see the country's true passion up close — what locals simply call *pelota*.
Approx 12 Hours
Samana Day Trip
Can't pick just one excursion? Samaná is practically three in a day — an open-air safari truck, a jungle trek (or horseback ride) to a 170-foot waterfall, and a catamaran out to the postcard island of Cayo Levantado. Add a home-cooked Dominican lunch and it may be the fullest day the country has to offer.
Approx 10 Hours
Salto la Jalda Waterfall Hike
Hike or ride horseback to Salto La Jalda — the tallest waterfall in the Dominican Republic — on an 8-mile trail through cacao forest and river crossings deep in the Miches mountains. It's under a two-hour drive from Punta Cana and a world away from the resort strip.
Approx 8 Hours
Country Safari Cultural Adventure
Want to actually understand the country you're visiting? We'll pick you up in an open-air safari truck and head deep into the Dominican countryside — cacao, coffee and tobacco farms, a local village, historic Higüey, a home-cooked lunch, and a lazy hour on Macao Beach. It's a full-day crash course in real Dominican life.
Approx 12 Hours
Whale Watching from Punta Cana
For two months each winter, thousands of humpback whales gather in Samaná Bay — and it's one of the best places on earth to see them. This full-day Whale Watching trip from Punta Cana rolls several excursions into one: a scenic bus ride, a boat out onto the bay, the whales themselves, and time on Cayo Levantado (Bacardi Island). Season runs January 20 – March 30; next window opens January 2027.
Approx 4 Hours
Cap Cana Sunshine Cruise

Approx 12 Hours
Catalina Island & Altos de Chavón
Isla Catalina lives in the shadow of famous Saona — and that's precisely its charm. This little uninhabited island is wrapped in white sand and some of the brightest coral reefs in the Dominican Republic, reached by a lively catamaran from La Romana. Spend the day snorkeling, feasting and lazing on the sand, then wander the cobbled lanes of Altos de Chavón on the way home.
Approx 5 Hours
