Overview

Puerto Plata Whale Watching – The humpback whales are regular hosts of Samana Bay.

Every  year,  from  mid-January  to  mid-April,  these  huge  mammals  leave  the  Arctic  to  give  birth  in  the  protected  Samana  Bay  on  the  east  coast  of  the  Dominican  Republic.

Whales have been hibernating in this area for centuries.  This  is  certified  by  photos  of  tainos  caves  (indigenous  people)  that  are  located  near  the  national  park  “Los  Haitises”  which  represent  a  jump  of  a  whale.

The  humpback  whale  is  a  marine  mammal  known  for  its  vivacity  and  songs,  they  can  measure  up  to  a  length  of  15  meters  and  a  weight  of  30  tons.

It is also called humpback, jubarte or humpback whale.  Its  body  is  massive,  black  on  the  top  and  whitish  on  the  ventral  part.  The  dorsal  fin  is  placed  at  two-thirds  of  the  body’s  length.

You  will  be  aboard  our  comfortable  boats  to  enjoy  and  you  whale  watching  and  their  little  glue  constantly  to  their  mother  in  their  natural  environment  is  turquoise  blue  lagoons  and  bordered  by  white  sand  beaches.

We  advise  you  during  your  free  time  to  swim  in  the  same  turquoise  waters  and  let  time  matter  to  change  your  surroundings  a  little  more,  before  re-turning  to  Puerto-Plata.  !!!
