Puerto Bayahibe

Catuano (Pass by)

Catuano is one of the most emblematic and strategic stops on Saona Island, located at the northwest end of the island, within the Cotubanamá National Park. It is known both as one of the only two permanent human settlements on the island and for its vibrant offer for ecotourism and diving. It is the geographical point where Saône Island and the main island of the Dominican Republic separate, and where the Atlantic Ocean and the Caribbean Sea meet.

Canto De La Playa

It offers extremely fine white sand, crystal clear turquoise waters and an edge of palm trees that provide natural shade.

Mano Juan

Bayahibe

  • 30m

Saona Island

  • 1h
  • Admission ticket included
Playa El Toro is considered a hidden gem and one of the most crystal clear beaches on Saône Island.
