Top Puerto Plata Day Cruises

This is a great choice for first-time visitors to Puerto Plata. Travel between dispersed sites in an air-conditioned vehicle and learn about the history and culture of Puerto Plata. Highlights of the trip include a visit to a rum factory, ocean views at San Felipe Fortress, a chocolate-making factory.

Save hours researching the highlights of Paradise Island and enjoy this comprehensive day tour instead. After a convenient pickup, go on a speedboat ride to Paradise Island (also known as Cayo Arena) and see its pristine white sandy beaches and great snorkeling spots. The trip also includes a speedboat ride around the mangrove jungle and plenty of opportunities to spot local wildlife.

Be as active or as relaxed as you like on this fun five-hour catamaran cruise. Make use of the provided snorkeling gear and explore from the boat, or simply chill out in or beside the on-board pool. BBQ food and drinks, including beer and rum, will be provided to keep you fueled up.

Combine a whale-watching tour with some time to relax on Cayo Levantado during this full-day tour from Sosua, Cabarete, or Puerto Plata. Out on the water of Samana Bay, witness the humpback whales doing their spectacular mating dance and maybe even see a whale calf. After the boat tour, head to Cayo Levantado for some time to relax and eat an included Dominican buffet lunch.
