Diving on the northern coast of the Dominican Republic is different from that of the southern coast.

One of the most exciting things to see in Samana are the manatees. These loveable creatures can often be spotted surfacing near boats and docks.

You might also get the chance to witness the majesty of a humpback whale on your way to a dive site or hear them while under water. In addition, Samana hosts stingrays, eagle rays, reef sharks, barracuda, small schools of fish, moray eels and crabs.
