Punta Cana · SCUBA DIVING
A shallow reef off Bávaro, a wall at Catalina and the underwater scooters that need no certification at all. The 15 below sort the try-dives from the real thing, with depths, certification requirements and prices.
Review of Punta Cana’s Scuba Doo underwater scooter tour, with snorkeling, glass-bottom boat views, hotel pickup, costs, and practical tips.

Ride a Scuba Doo scooter beneath Punta Cana waters, explore coral and fish, snorkel, and enjoy a glass-bottom boat trip for $55.
“To get to the site where they have the diving scooters, we had to change 2 boats . there were many in the group but only 3 scooters, due to which it took a lot of time. Those who were early in the line had enough time but towards the end we were only given 5 minutes or so. While waiting for scooter, there was an option to do snorkeling which was nice. Overall the experience is good would have been better if they set expectations on the time, it took almost 5 hours from pick up to drop off. The price for under water digital pictures is more than…”

“This company (Powers Adventures) was amazing! The hotel pickup and once you arrive can be a little chaotic because you have to wait for the boat. But once you’re on the boat it’s absolutely amazing! It’s great for if you’re just trying to sit back or if you’re wanting to have tons of fun! This excursion is for everybody! We had so much fun!”

Ride a Scuba Doo underwater scooter in Punta Cana, snorkel with tropical fish, and enjoy a boat trip for $75 per person.
“Nope nope and nope. Trash and puke filled beach. No organization or direction. Shuttle service sketchy. Didn’t feel safe. Very poorly run. If you have trouble with balance do not go. You have to transfer boats 5 times. From beach to shuttle boat to jelly bean glass bottom boat to the platform back to a transfer boat and from a boat back to the beach. Says half day tour, it is not. We were gone 3 hours that is counting the 30 minute commute from the hotel each way.”
Review of Punta Cana’s four-hour party cruise with snorkeling, Hooka breathing, parasailing, open bar, music, and hotel transfers.
“Great time had by all. Crew was outstanding and fun was had by all. Parasailing was out standing as all three of us were on the kite at once. They also dipped us 3 times and then back up. Had no problems at all and the pick up was on time. Worth the money.”

Punta Cana Scuba Doo review: ride a submarine scooter 3 meters underwater, snorkel reefs, and weigh the $59 price against transfer times.
“Toata experiența a fost ok, nu la superlativ….. Preluarea de la hotel a fost intarziata, scufundarea nu a durat mai mult de 7-8 minute, desi era specificat ca este de 20 min, fructele tropicale au lipsit cu toate ca erau specificate.”

Review of Catalina Island’s two-site scuba tour from Punta Cana, with boat transfers, BBQ beach time, costs, safety notes, and booking advice.
“The transport took a long time. A total of two hours had passed from "Breathless Punta Cana" to "La Romana". The boat was very old and filled with guests (about 40 to 50 people). All the equipment seemed very old and run down. Wetsuits were only available in large sizes (no S, an M which was very worn, otherwise only larger). I had two dives and on each I had to change my regulator with octopus as the parts weren't working. The food was good. The dives were good too. While many corals are damagedmany were preserved and alive. You saw a lot of fish and even several rays. The…”
