We sail along the coast of Bavaro / Punta Cana, one of the 10 most beautiful beaches in the world. On a natural reef, we anchor and there you can marvel at the breathtaking underwater world snorkeling. You will be surrounded with a hundreds of fishes. Then we sail to the "natural pool", a beautiful, natural bay with waist-high water. Here you can unwind, enjoy a Cuba Libre in the warm water and just have fun. On board we serve during the entire trip Cuba Libre, Rum Punch (alcohol until after the snorkeling), Coke, Sprite, juice and water. At the natural pool we serve a snack. We have music and soft animation. What makes us different? You will get many Catamaran excursions in Bavaro / Punta Cana offered. But if you do not want to go down into the ground and be with up to 150 other tourists on a boat, we are the alternative. We take a maximum of 35 guests and do not ,forced animation'. We focus on the personal contact in the foreground and we adapt ourselves to their desires. With each trip we take pictures, which you can download from our website for free after you‘re back home.

I am so happy that we booked this tour with Viva Colonia. We are new to traveling abroad and were very reluctant to trust just anyone because we were traveling with our two special needs (autism) teenagers. When we called and expressed hesitation, Valentino and Ralf came to our hotel to discuss our needs. When we explained our reluctance to... More

We are in Punta Cana for a wedding. Today the wedding party and guests took the Viva Colonia Tour. It was BRILLIANT! Valentinno was a great host. We wanted for nothing- he kept the fun and cocktails coming. The site we snorkeled was beautiful and the stay at the natural pool was just the right amount of time. The boat... More

This is one of my favorites excursions in Punta Cana. You can take the boat right in Bavaro. One tip, rest the day before because you have to be ready for Valentino!! He will make dance some "bachata" and laugh white his unique sense of humor, or you can just sit and chat with Ralf, who will make you feel... More

Just returned from Punta Cana, and so glad we were able to fit this day tour in our busy schedule. We booked the trip with Roberto who was so friendly and easy to deal with. Valentino was our guide who was so fun and helpful. Walking to the beach, into the water, and right to the boat was so convenient.... More

Just returned from Punta Cana and did this trip which was a fabulous afternoon out. We were lucky that there was only approx 12 of us on the trip so it was like our own personal party. Valentino our guide made it fun with the snorkelling and feeding of the fish on the reef. Lots of Mama Juana and cocktails... More

We did this tour in May & had a great time, very relaxing, lots to drink, scenery was beautiful. Had fun snorkeling & feeding the tropical fish. It is only 4hrs & you walk right on the boat from the beach, no time wasted in transport. Ralf & his crew were amazing!!! Would def do this excursion again !!! More
