Not all dives are created equal.

A full-day expedition to one of the most dramatic dive destinations on the Samaná Peninsula. Beneath Cabo Cabrón’s wild coastline, towering walls drop into deep blue water, covered in giant sponges and vibrant marine life.

Travel aboard our dedicated dive catamaran, enjoy two dives in the national park, and experience a side of the Dominican Republic that few divers ever get to see.
