Concha González Mateos12 months agoThe trip to Samana with Flor was a unique and personalized experience. We shared it with locals, making it a truly special trip that I'll always remember. I wholeheartedly recommend it. And as for Samana itself, with its fantastic vegetation and unforgettable paradise beaches like the spectacular Playa Frontón, thank you Flor for planning the trip so well. Thanks also to Ricardo, our private taxi driver, who took us on excursions and explained local customs.See this review on Google
Verónica Castillo11 months agoAdd #SamanaExperiences to your life!! An unmissable and unforgettable trip! We traveled to Samaná with Flor last October. With her, we visited Santo Domingo and then spent a week in Las Galeras. A truly amazing experience! The best way to visit and get to know the Dominican Republic, its customs, and its people. We went on fantastic excursions, met locals, and she showed us typical places… and the food… Don't hesitate and give yourselves this opportunity. It's the best way to discover a different country and enjoy a real trip. And if you have little ones… don't hesitate! We went with our 6-year-old #AprilExplorer, and it was something she'll never forget! By the way… we'll be back!!!See this review on Google

Description
A private boat out of Las Galeras to two of the most dramatic beaches on the peninsula. Playa Frontón sits under a vertical cliff wall and Playa Madama is a narrow cove closed in by rock; neither is reachable by road, and the crossing takes under 20 minutes. The boat is yours for the day, so how long you stay at each beach is up to you, with time to swim and rest. Departure is from Playa Grande in Las Galeras at 9:30 am, back around 3:00 pm. Lunch is not included on this trip: Dominican food at Playa Frontón can be added for $17 per person. The Madama cave is not part of this excursion.

Playa Grande, Las Galeras, Samaná, at 9:30 am. Back at the same beach around 3:00 pm.
Accessibility & Requirements
Boarding is from the beach, so expect a short wade in shallow water. The crossing is in a small open boat and can be bumpy when the Atlantic swell is up; the trip may be moved or cancelled in poor sea conditions. There is no shade on board and no toilet at either beach. Not suitable for anyone who cannot step into a boat from the sand.
Viajar a Samaná is a private tour agency located facing the beach in Las Galeras, working with certified local guides for Spanish-speaking visitors. The excursions are private: a boat for two people to Playa Frontón and Madama, the seven hidden beaches on foot with a guide certified by the ministry of tourism and 15 years of experience, the El Limón waterfall by private taxi walking through the jungle and with a local guide, Playa Rincón and Caño Frío with private van service to do the tour, and a 12-day trip through Samaná, Dominican Republic with hotels and transfers included and a personal guide. Los Haitises is the only one done by shared boat.
