The Experience

Before You Go

Book morning for calmer seas

Morning departures usually offer better visibility for snorkeling and gentler seas for a steadier ride.

Use reef-safe sunscreen

Protect coral and your skin by choosing reef-safe sunscreen or wearing a rashguard for sun protection.

Secure valuables in a dry pouch

Wave spray and dancing in the Natural Pool can soak pockets — keep phones and wallets in a waterproof pouch.

Confirm custom requests ahead

If you want upgrades like lobster, champagne, or specific music, request them before boarding so the crew can prepare.

Local Knowledge

Hidden Gems

  • Walk the quieter stretches of Bávaro's eastern beaches at low tide for calmer swimming and shells
  • Small fishing piers near El Cortecito for early-morning local catches and coffee vendors

Wildlife

  • Parrotfish
  • Southern stingray (in sandy flats near the Natural Pool)

Conservation Note

Use reef-safe products and avoid touching coral or feeding fish; operators often follow protected-area guidelines to reduce anchor damage and reef disturbance.

La Altagracia's coastline grew from coral reef and limestone processes; fishing and small-scale agriculture preceded the modern tourism boom of the 1980s and 1990s.
