Observe the impressive whale parade from december to march
If your Punta Cana honeymoon unfolds during this season, you can witness one of the most beautiful marine spectacles on earth, in the heart of Samana Bay. Every year, whales leave the cold waters of the North Atlantic to reach warmer seas. Many choose the Caribbean Sea as their destination.
This is why, between december and march, you can observe them off the coast of the Dominican Republic. During this period, the mating season unfolds, and these mammals engage in seductive displays, forming an impressive ballet.
During a boat excursion on your honeymoon, admire these magnificent cetaceans diving by the hundreds into the warm waters of the bay to give birth. Over 10,000 whales gather each year in Samana Bay, and they are remarkably easy to approach!
Did you know?
Like humans, the calf develops in its mother's womb. gestation lasts between 11 and 13 months. Contrary to popular belief, the duration of gestation does not depend on the whale's size. Smaller cetaceans can spend just as long in their mother's belly as larger ones. And as soon as the calf is born, it must immediately be capable of swimming, seeing, hearing, and vocalizing!
