Just thought I would post a few photos I took from a recent group trip to Isla Soana. We were fortunate to have beautiful weather and, simply put, a great day at the beach :)

Where is this? How far from Santiago? How much is a trip, or is it included in an A1 stay?

Bayahibe, the jump off point to Isla Saona, is about a 4 hour drive from Santiago. It is the #1 solicited excursion in the Dominican Republic and it is not included in an AI stay. At least I know of no resort that includes the excursion.

Isla Saona is a must visit and an awe-inspiring beach that was used by the Bounty Chocolate bar as the quintessential Caribbean beach in their ads :)

We also offer excursions to Isla Saona and neighboring Isla Catalina. You can see our tour options by visiting our our ad on dr1 and going to our website: Caribbean Dream - Tours & Excursions - Punta Cana, Dominican Republic. :)

Isla Saona

Took the excursion on October 3, 2012; transportation provided to/from Bavaro to Bayahibe. The new highway is amazing. Catamaran to the island. Rum and cola served on the catamaran; music and dancing also. The island is very nice. Bohemia beer and food was provided (chicken, fish, fruit, vegetables and salad). There was a sauce served with the fish/chicken that had capers, cilantro and other herbs and spices. Anyone know what it was? Very Good!

I like to swim so all I did was swim, drink beer and enjoy the beach. We boarded a passenger boat and went to the National Park – Sand Beach. The water here was amazing! Visiting the Sand Beach was worth the trip.

Great experience!
