Insider tips
- ★Arrive early at Bayahibe beach to secure a good spot on the catamaran and get prime seating for views during the sail.
- ★Bring reef-safe sunscreen and reapply often—the Caribbean sun is intense and reflection off the water increases UV exposure.
- ★The natural starfish pool is shallow but crowded; go early in the activity sequence or ask your guide for timing tips to avoid peak crowds.
- ★Wear water shoes or bring them in your bag—the sandy approach to the starfish pool can have sharp shells or rocky patches.
