🎯 Tour Overview
• Catalina Island is located off the southeastern coast of the Dominican Republic, a hidden gem surrounded by pristine waters teeming with life.

This site is ideal for intermediate to advanced divers due to its depth and the chance to spot larger marine species. The coral-covered wall is alive with a wide variety of sea creatures, from colorful sponges to schools of tropical fish, moray eels, and even the occasional stingray or sea turtle.

True to its name, this site resembles a natural aquarium filled with a kaleidoscope of marine life. You'll swim through crystal-clear waters surrounded by an array of fish, including parrotfish, angelfish, pufferfish, and many more. The coral reef here is vibrant and teeming with life, making it a photographer's dream.
