Great Service!!! - Our group of 24 had an incredible experience on this private party cruise in Punta Cana. We were celebrating a friends birthday and the crew ensured we were safe and had tons of fun. The boat included an open bar with delicious cocktails and non-alcoholic beverages. The Chef prepared a delicious meal of fresh seafood caught by the captain with a rope and hook while on board. It also included fresh vegetables, lobster, chicken and steak. It was the best meal of our 5 day trip at Punta Cana. We were celebrating two birthdays and the crew ensured the Birthday Girls felt special by singing and offering cake and champagne. Our favorite part of the cruise was when we stopped to snorkle and use the waterslide. We saw lots of fish and the guide was very educated and explained each fish in detail. We highly recommend!

Excellent boat cruise. - Thank you to the crew, we had a great time. Would definitely recommend. My grandson loved the clown wig.

Birthday - This was such a fun experience! There were 12 of us. We had some amazing rum punch and danced so much. The crew had great energy and were very attentive. Our photographer was very professional and captured everything.

Amazing Customer Service! - If you’re browsing & thinking of adding this activity to your DR itinerary, this is your sign to book this experience! We had a small set back, not because of the Blue Marine crew, but we arrived 1 hour & half late to our original time booked, and they made sure we had an amazing time (of what was left of course) one of the crew members, was Supervisor for the Sosua location (we booked for the Punta Cana location) his name is Happy Boy, and wow, he set the vibes! Super energetic, very attentive, made our afternoon worthwhile with his carisma & fun personality! Graciassss nuevamente Happy Boy! After our cruise was over, he made sure we were properly being catered to at the Nova Beach Club where the catarmans are docked, overall a 10/10 experience! We will definitely be doing it again, and leaving our hometown a little earlier so we can fully enjoy the hours for which we booked!

Loved!! - We had such a great time on this trip! There were 26 of us and we had a blast! Snorkeling, drinking some local favorites, good snacks & dancing!! So fun and the staff was great too!

Great trip for family - Great trip for my family. My kids are 18, 12, and 5. They enjoyed the snorkeling and the ride. Captain and crew were excellent and the drinks/food were fantastic!

Blue marine private cruise hire - We went on a boat excursion to soana island and experienced being treated like cattle, whistles blown at us and health & safety was a joke (that included the food offered!) we decided to book an exclusive boat with blue marine. From beginning to end it was amazing. Made to feel comfortable private boat to play our own music - food drink flowed freely and was given by staff like we had our own butler and maid service. The snorkelling was great and the natural pool was peaceful and calm. The whole trip was a pleasure with a special mention to NICKY our host who knew we wasn’t there to party and dance and respected our relaxing calm day on the sea. Highly recommend

Great service Happy Boy! - Had a great time on the boat with el capitano, happy boy was best host and good service! Can’t wait until next time

Fun time with surprise extra photography cost - Overall, our group of 8 had a good time on the boat, with a couple of bumps. The staff was friendly and helpful, especially with my husband who is disabled and got seasick. They made sure he was able to participate in the shallower water hangout time, and we are very thankful for that. We booked a half day boat trip through our hotel (I think it was actually about 3 hours), and were told that if we wanted a private experience we could pay for 10 people (there were 8 of us), so we said sure. Later an email came saying we needed to actually pay more to make it a private experience. Ok, idk who made the mistake (hotel or this company), but fine. We got picked up in a van from our hotel, hit really we could have walked next door across the beach. At the beginning there was an opportunity to buy some things like alcohol or jewelry before boarding the boat. We took a little boat from the beach to reach the bigger boat and started cruising. It was a choppy day, so we stopped to snorkel, but it was kind of short and not much to see. Probably the highlight was the next spot where we were all able to get off the boat in shallower water that we could stand in and hang out. Lunch was grilled lobster and chicken. Everyone liked it. I’m not sure what all was in the bar cooler besides Presidente because I brought along a bottle of vodka. Here’s the main thing that was an issue for us… we had a photographer on the boat. It wasn’t mentioned in advance and we didn’t request it, but he was super friendly and took lots of photos for us. At the end of the boat ride, he told us that it was going to be $200 per couple for the photos, and we all had to get them or no one could (probably because we would obviously just share). $800 is a lot of money for photos we didn’t request in advance. We were shocked tbh and couldn’t really afford it, but also this super friendly guy spent three hours with us on the boat and we didn’t want him to not get paid for that (and we wanted the photos). It was very uncomfortable and kind of ruined the moment for a bit. I wish there had been a conversation in the beginning where we could have discussed pricing and what we could afford to pay. We kind of had a feeling there might be an extra charge for it at the end, but expected it to be more like $200 total.

Save your money! - It's definitely not a boat cruise. You are on a boat. But it doesn't go anywhere. You move a couple hundred yards in one direction. Stop to swim for a few minutes. Then move a couple hundred yards in the other direction. Where you are in 3 foot of water listening to music. And you have locals walking out to try and sell you stuff the whole time. Then back to shore.
