What is this tour like?
A 36-foot express yacht with one cabin and a bathroom, chartered for three hours with captain, crew, transfers, drinks and snorkelling gear. From $675 per charter for up to eight guests.
The route is set: along the coast, a snorkelling stop at the coral reef and a relaxed swimming stop at the Natural Pool. Departures leave from Bávaro beach in one of three windows — 9:00 to 12:00, 12:00 to 15:00 or 15:00 to 18:00 — so you pick the part of the day you want.
What comes with the charter is listed in full: captain and crew, fuel, roundtrip hotel or villa transport, fresh fruit, nachos with pico de gallo, beer, rum, mamajuana, water, soft drinks, snorkelling gear and a Bluetooth sound system. You can bring your own food and drink as well.
Extra time is available at $100 an hour when the boat is free, and the operator asks for special requests — allergies, particular food or drink — at least 24 hours ahead. Larger boats in the same fleet start at $975 for up to twenty guests, with $50 for each guest above ten.
