Once aboard your private boat, head out along the beautiful Sosúa coastline for approximately 2 to 2.5 hours on the water. Soak up the sun, feel the ocean breeze and take in the crystal-clear waters and beautiful beaches as you cruise along the coast. Dive into the Caribbean to snorkel over vibrant coral reefs, surrounded by tropical fish and stunning underwater views. Your professional marine guide will lead the way as you discover the colorful marine life beneath the surface. After your snorkeling adventure, return to the boat to enjoy tropical drinks from the open bar while soaking in the island music. Depending on the Tour Option selected at booking, enjoy nachos and seasonal fruit with the Basic Tour, or chicken skewers with the Deluxe Tour. Keep the Caribbean vibes going as you cruise back to the dock, where your transportation will be waiting for the comfortable journey back to your hotel or cruise port.
