Port of Samana
The Port of Samana (pronounced "sama-na") is the entryway to one of the Eastern Caribbean’s few remaining unspoiled regions. Furthermore, each winter thousands of humpback whales migrate here, to winter in the Bay of Samana, which provides the unusual opportunity to view these titans at unusually close distance. That’s a shore excursion not possible anywhere else in the Caribbean. But why are there so few cruise passengers to enjoy all this? Although the Dominican Republic is the most visited island in the Caribbean, cruise ships from U.S. ports are amazingly sparse. Most are from Germany, visiting several times a month from January until the end of March. Port Location Some cruise lines prefer to call this stop Cayo Levantado Port after the small island in Samana Bay (a popular day excursion) over Port of Samana. Regardless, your ship ends up at the same anchorage in the Bay of Samana. To Port of Samana City Sights |
