Liveaboard Life Day 256: Private Boat Trip to Paradise Island / Cayo Arenas in Puerto Plata province, Dominican Republic ⛵️

Joie de Vivre 🌞 Another fun day yesterday with Jo (Jonathan's sister) and Marios visiting us here in DomRep! So we planned to bring them to the beautiful places here and the funny thing is we've never been to these places too! hahaha 🤣

Yesterday, we invited our friends Stacy of Sailing Roxy Dog, Nick and Kelly of Sailing Satori to join us to Paradise Island.. we just have to drive for 90 minutes from Luperon to reach Punta Rucia (a beautiful beach town) to catch a boat to Cayo Arenas (or more commonly known as Paradise Island).. it's actually a sandbar but with one of the most beautiful snorkeling spots in the country!

We only paid $35 (usd) each for a private boat tour with free rum, soda and water plus a buffet lunch at the hotel 👑 Totally worth it!! 😍

Our Captain (who turned to be my underwater photographer and my new freediving teacher. Bwahaha) even brought us to a quick tour of the mangroves before returning to mainland! I think his boat has 75hp engine so it was super fun! hahaha 😂

Wrapped up the day and drove back to Luperon, had ice cream then went to Wendy's Bar for more rum drinks! 👑

That's our monday guys, excited for more upcoming days of exploring our "home" island 👫😘
