This is our day excursions for divers, snorkelers and all those who want to discover the real Dominican Republic.

 

Rio San Juan is located just 65km/45 miles east of Sosua. 

 

The lagoon and the mangroves make it one of the island's top destinations.

“idyllic...like a postcard” said one of our divers when we cruised the lagoon and he saw the river flowing into the open ocean. 

 

Our first dive and snorkeling spot “Las Rocas” is a perfect mix of caverns and reef: spectacular structures, incredible light reflections and colorful sponges and corals wherever you look.

 

A cavern full of stalactites makes this dive special.

 

Our second diving and snorkeling session brings us to the “Piscina Natural”, the natural pool. The reef starts at 3m/10ft and slopes down to 11m/36ft. The diversity of colorful tropical reef fish, soft and hard coral is incredible.

 

As this is a very shallow site dive time can exceed 90 minutes depending on the divers experience.

 

After returning to Laguna GriGri, we will enjoy a typical Dominican lunch, and will return around 5 pm.
