We did the private boat tour of Saona Island, with travel arranged from a resort in Punta Cana. We had an amazing experience with our guide Kiko, who was extremely knowledgeable about ocean life as well as local culture. He was very kind and generous with his wisdom. We saw sea turtles, starfish, and eagle rays. This tour was a great way to get a sense of local life in Man Juan (a fishing village) and experience the ocean outside of a resort experience. We also enjoyed the quiet, beautiful beach that was part of the tour. Highly recommend this tour as a way to experience the Dominican and Saona Island that is more eco-focused and outside of the party boats and beach scene!
