of the Dominican culture.  Lunch at a nearby restaurant. A couple of hours beach time.  Leave in the afternoon, heading north to Samana for the night.

Day four.  Guided whale watching tour through the bay. This is a great way to see humpback whales with their babies in this protected bay.  Every year during January and February the whales come to this area to have their young.  Excellent guides explain the migration and birthing habits of these huge gentle creatures. Upon our return we will stop off 

at a nearby island for some lunch , beach time, and snorkeling. This 

is a really nice day to relax and enjoy one of nature's wonders.

The catamaran makes stops for snorkeling, swimming, and enjoying the sun and scenery.  Lunch is included on the tour. In the  late afternoon we will take a tram ride up the mountain overlooking the city.  A statue of Christ is on the top of the mountain overlooking the town of Puerto Plata (Silver Port) with spectacular view of the city. 

Much of the Spanish silver came from this area. Great place for 

photos. Back to the hotel for the evening.

Day eight. For the thrill seekers we will have an optional trip to

.  Hike up a hill and work you way down 27 water falls

or take the slides you can take the short trails around the ledges and 

just get into the pools.It is a beautiful place unlike any other that 

we've seen.  Other options include city tour of the old part of Puerto
