Booking Tours & Excursions in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic

Headed to Punta Cana? If so, you might want to consider locking in one of the following excursions in advance of your arrival. If you are traveling in high season, consider it important to book any tour or excursion at least 30 days out from your arrival. If you are traveling the rest of the year, most tours can be booked on arrival at your hotel. The one tour that should always be booked in advance is the Dolphin Swim because of the limited number of people who are allowed to swim with the dolphins on a daily basis.

In Punta Cana, we recommend Sol Cana Tours. On many occasions, they've gone above and beyond for our clients. Please see their list of tours below and if you are interested in booking any, drop us a line! 

Cheers,

Meads Bay Villas in Anguilla

I just booked a client for 10 nights at this lovely little collection of 4 private villas on Meads Bay Beach in Anguilla and I must say, I am supremely jealous. Anguilla is tops on my list and Meads Bay Beach is my favorite beach on the island. 

Each one of the Meads Bay Beach Villas is 1700 square feet. Villa # 1 is closet to the sand with the other 3 staggered back from this unit. 

The property is lushly landscaped and the interiors are well appointed with high-quality furnishings:

It can be said, that one of the reasons this property has such a high return guest rate is because of the staff. Miss Delta is famous for her Caribbean hospitality:

After a long day on the sand... retire to your villa and enjoy your private pool:

Meads Bay is my favorite because some of the best restaurants are located on this beach such as the Straw Hat & Blanchards.

Enjoy,

A Few Caribbean Spots Make the Top 10 Snorkel List

This is a great article from Coastal Living via CNN... "(Coastal Living) -- Underwater photographer and adventurer Tanya Burnett-Palmer shares her favorite places to sightsee beneath the waves.

Dean's Blue Hole, Long Island, Bahamas
A blue hole is created when the ceiling to an ancient cave system collapses in the ocean -- Dean's is thought to be the world's deepest. Fin your way off the powder-white beach and watch the sand go from 5 to more than 600 feet deep in just a few kicks.
On-site secret: I found I could circumnavigate the entire blue hole by swimming along the cliff base and sandy shoals. On a light-wind day, it's easy to snorkel the protective reef near the mouth of the small bay.

Keep an eye out for: jacks, tarpon, turtles, the occasional dolphin or porpoise -- almost anything can wander in. Small reef fish stay in the shallows. Coastal Living: 2009 best seafood dives
When to go: all year; 242/338-0011 or reeldivers.com.
