Catalina Island was discovered in 1494 by the navigator Christopher Columbus on his second trip to the American continent and was named in honor of the daughter of Queen Isabella of Castile, but it is also known as Ikiita Island and is called by the indigenous people places like Labanea or Toeya. It is part of the trio of adjacent islands in the southeast of the Dominican Republic, together with Saona and Catalinita, with Saona being the only inhabited island. Catalina Island was, like other areas of the Caribbean, a refuge for pirates and corsairs from 1520 until the 1980s. 1720. They waited for the Spanish ships that passed by to attack and rob them, which is interesting for lovers of these ancient stories.

4 hours on the bus… and 30 minutes snorkel… the rest of the time we ate lunch and swam. It was a 12 hour day.

We reserve this activity and chose a pickup point but the bus to go to this activity never showed up. We tried to call and to text them but nobody answered. We were thrill to go visit Catalina Island but we didn't got the chance because of that. I suggest that you take another compagny if you want to be sure to get there. Very disapointed.
