Morning Saona pickup runs at 7:05 AM; sunset and half-day options leave 3–7 PM. Recommended itinerary by stay length — 3 nights: pick one full day (Saona) + one half day (Scape Park or sunset catamaran); 5 nights: Saona + Macao buggies + a sunset cruise, with two full beach days in between; 7 nights: add Catalina snorkel + a horseback morning on Macao + Hoyo Azul.

Pricing on this page: Saona $120, catamaran party boat $75, buggy $55, Catalina $99, horseback $65, Scape Park $129 — all per person, all with Iberostar Selection Bávaro pickup included, no resort-desk mark-up.
