After meeting your friendly local guide at the pier, make your way to the powerboat, which is waiting approximately 5-8 minutes from the cruise pier on foot.
Setting out into the blue Samana waters, begin your search for magnificent humpback whales. Each winter, the whales journey from the North Atlantic to the Samana Bay to give birth to their calves. From your waterside seat, survey the waters for sights of these gentle giants. Pass by the famous Cayo Levantado island (sometimes called Bacardi Island) and take in the spectacular views of the mountains surrounding Samana Bay. Beer and soda will be available for purchase on the boat (not included). Depending on the whales, your time on the boat may be up to two hours.
Once your journey has come to an end, you will be taken back to the small boat pier where you began. It is a five-minute walk back to the cruise pier via an open-air market.
