This is not the sunset cruise your parents booked. A catamaran leaves from Bávaro with a DJ, a sound system that means it, and a bar that stays open from the moment you step on board.

Halfway through we drop anchor over the reef for snorkeling. Masks and fins are on board and a guide gets in the water with you, so it works whether or not you have done it before.

Then the music comes back up for the ride home. Everyone on board is 18 or over, which keeps the tone exactly where it should be.

Boarding in Bávaro — 20 minutes
Welcome drink, safety briefing and the first set from the DJ.

Snorkeling stop — 40 minutes
Reef swim with gear included and a guide in the water.

Sail back — 90 minutes
Open bar, dancing and the loudest part of the trip.

Pickup is included from every resort in Bávaro, Punta Cana, Uvero Alto and Macao.

Guests staying in Cap Cana meet us at the Cap Cana Information Center, next to the main security gate. At most hotels we pick you up at the security gate, not the lobby.

Staying in an Airbnb or a residential area? Walk to the nearest hotel gate or to one of our meeting points and we will take it from there. You can also drive straight to the ranch if you prefer.

You receive your exact pickup time and spot the night before. Pickup usually happens one hour before your tour, up to an hour and a half in high season or for hotels farther out.

Please be at your pickup point ten minutes early. The driver calls your name three times; if nobody answers it counts as a no-show, which is non-refundable and cannot be rescheduled.
