Hello fellow divers! My son and I just finished our 4 dives with Coral Point diving. This being our 1st trip (diving) to the DR. We can not express how extremely happy we are that we found Coral Point!! Luca and his staff were more than perfect! We felt right at home. So thankful for the smaller group of divers (6 divers, 2 instructors)!! Other dive shops had 30-40 divers (to many)!! Super experience!! I would tell anyone going to DR to definitely book at Coral Point!! Thank you Coral Point for the great memories!! Paul and Jack.

We had a great day touring the turquoise waters of the Dominican Republic on this first class boat. The crew and Joy all wanted to make sure we had the best time and were very communicative when booking. We had an on-time pickup at our hotel that brought us to the meeting point where we were met by Joy right away and given an overview for what to expect for the day. There is a lot of time to enjoy the boat and lay out on the nets at the front of the boat, and also a good amount of activities such as snorkeling and exploring Soana Island for an hour. The meal included was delicious! You wont regret booking this excursion, many of the other tours we saw were crammed with people and did not look nearly as relaxing as this tour. It can have up to 30 people, but we only had 10 people on our tour.

Words are not enough to describe how amazing this experience is, you have to live it to fully understand it. The crew onboard is absolutely amazing (professional, kind, helpful, funny), they know all the best spots to visit, and they cook delicious food too! The catamaran is a real beauty and very comfortable. From tropical colors to pristine beaches (without forgetting improvised domino games of course), the 2 days we spent onboard the Quetzal were truly magical and unforgettable.

Amazing experience!! Our driver JUAN was fantastic, was there in time and we started a lovely conversation in the car. He is a pleasure to be around and very funny! A true gentleman. Also, the Dominican cowboy FAUSTO was spectacular. He’s been working with horses all his life and more than 20 years in this ranch. He’s a sweet, understanding and incredible host. Know what he’s doing and he enjoys it to the fullest! We know how to horse ride so we galloped on the beach with Juan. It was just the two of us, my husband and I. WONDERFUL AND EXTRAORDINARY. It was one of the best experiences I’ve ever had! Another true gentleman. It is clear that he loves and cares about horses. They even give you coconut water and FREE pictures that they take of you all the time. Don’t hesitate and BOOK with them!
