1. Punta Cana
Pickup starts at your hotel lobby or assigned point. An air conditioned vehicle takes you to the marina or beach used for boarding.

Uniformed staff handle check in at the departure shore. The crew checks your booking and explains safety procedures before helping you board.
- 20 min
3. Punta Cana coast
You get snorkeling gear and help from the crew before entering the water. This is the swim stop before the main party.
- 5 min

The boat passes or visits the dolphin area for viewing from aboard. You don't swim with the animals or touch them during this part.
- 120 min
5. Punta Cana natural pool
The natural pool hosts the main DJ party with an open bar. The schedule gives conflicting durations of 2 hours and 2 hours 30 minutes. Check the pool time before booking.
- 45 min
6. Punta Cana
The boat returns to its departure area after the pool party. Your vehicle then takes you back to the same hotel or assigned meeting point.
The 5 hour itinerary allows 45 minutes for hotel pickup and transfer. Boarding has a 15 minute slot. The final 45 minute stage includes the boat's return to shore and the hotel transfer. Road time depends on your hotel's location.
Pickup and meeting point
- Hotel collection: Your pickup time follows after booking and is repeated 24 hours before the trip. A further message arrives on the day, with collection from the lobby or designated area.
- Lobby readiness: The hotel wait starts 10 minutes before your collection time. Staff wear the company logo, and your phone needs to stay reachable for directions.
- Rental address: Rental pickups depend on access to your address. The team needs your full address and unit number. A contact number and nearby landmark help locate you.
- Direct meeting: Arrive at least 30 minutes early if you aren't using hotel pickup. The manager sends your meeting point and arrival instructions by message, and staff check your mobile voucher.
Before you book
- Check the pickup arrangement before booking from a rental property. Collection isn't available at every rental address, so a nearby meeting point may be needed.
Fit
Is this tour right for you?
The 5 hour outing favors the sandbar party. Your ticket covers ages 18 to 80. You're giving snorkeling 20 minutes before the longer DJ stop. It isn't the pick if your group wants most of the water time for snorkeling.
For a longer snorkel stop, F&G Vibes schedules 35 minutes of snorkeling from $64.99 per person. Caribbean Escape pairs guided nursery snorkeling with seafood lunch from $114 per person if you want a full meal on the water.
Who it's not for
- Travelers under 18 or over 80
- Guests expecting a full meal or imported bottles
- Groups wanting snorkeling to fill most of the day
Good to know
Know before you go
Tickets cover travelers aged 18 to 80. The tour allows up to 200 guests across bookings. Your own reservation can contain up to 30 people, so that booking limit doesn't describe the full crowd.
Bring a towel and sunscreen for the water stops. The price leaves both items out. Professional photos and videos cost extra. Snorkeling gear is included for the 20 minute swim stop.
This outing isn't recommended during pregnancy or with spinal injuries. Poor cardiovascular health is also a reason to avoid the activity. The broad fitness description doesn't cancel those specific restrictions for travelers.
Direct arrivals need to reach the meeting point 30 minutes early. Your instructions come from the manager by message. Uniformed staff carry the company logo, and your mobile ticket is used for check in.
Poor conditions can cause the cruise to be canceled. A spare day in your stay leaves space to arrange another outing. Keep the booking contact reachable for changes to the sailing or pickup.
Your cancellation is fully refundable at least 24 hours before the start. With less notice, the standard terms give no refund. The deadline is tied to the activity's departure rather than your hotel's pickup.
