Samaná, considered one of the best places in the world for observing humpback whales, shows these majestic marine mammals that, after a long journey, spend the winter in its waters without feeding, losing up to a fifth of their weight.
WHALE SEASON
Every year, Samaná Bay in the Dominican Republic becomes the scene of an amazing natural spectacle: thousands of humpback whales travel from the North Atlantic to warm tropical waters to breed. Discovering these marine giants in their natural habitat is a unique experience. The Samaná Peninsula, with places such as Los Haitises National Park , the beaches of Las Galeras and Las Terrenas, the El Limón waterfall, the famous Cayo Levantado and the Humpback Whale Sanctuary, offers an authentic natural paradise full of surprises.
