Between Puerto Plata and Cabarete, lies the Bay of Sosua. Known for its sheltered calm waters, coral reefs and wide variety of fish and marine life, the Bay attracts many snorkelers and divers and is a popular spot for a cruise.
Even if you don't dive or snorkel, the Bay’s clear waters enable you to catch a glimpse of some of the richness of sea life below. Getting out on the Bay is also a relaxing way to spend a few hours and view some the Dominican Republic's picturesque northern coastline.
In the winter, whale-watching is also a popular activity in Sosua Bay.

We had a FANTASTIC time!!!! Snorkelling was so much fun. The boat was clean and well taken care of. The crew was great and very friendly. They answered all our questions about the island and were very informative. If your going to the Dominican this is a MUST DO tour!!

The best part was though, that they paid as much attention to the kids ( 3 12 year old boys) as they did to us. Great cha-cha slide Tiger Woods!! The food was good and the beer even better. Thanks for a great time.
