 A Great Family Activity:

Without a doubt, one of the best activities to enjoy as a family is Snorkeling, which consists of the use of a mask that allows you to see underwater, along with a tube that makes it easier for you to breathe without having to look away from the water surface.

This recreational activity and water sport offers us an exciting experience of underwater exploration in one of the most valuable and important ecosystems for marine life. 

They have a very extensive biodiversity, it is estimated that 25% of all marine life depends on reefs in some cycle of its life and are the habitat of different species of sponges, oysters, clams, crabs, starfish, sea urchins and many species of fish.

When someone visits a well-preserved coral reef for the first time, the first impression is an explosion of feelings, such as amazement and happiness, since so many things are happening around you that you do not know where to look, wherever you look.

Just look and you will discover something new. In them, life is exuberant, and they offer a visual display of organisms with different shapes and colors that you never thought could exist.

Sosua, Puerto Plata a few minutes from the Mysterious Alicia Beach, also known as “Miraculous Beach” that emerged from nowhere in 2003 due to the natural displacement of sand by the natural action of wind currents and ocean water.

One of the most impressive characteristics of this beach is its beautiful turquoise blue color and its amazing crystalline transparency, offering great visibility many meters away; in this reef we can find a great variety of fish of various colors and sizes.

The most adult fish are the friendliest ones that won’t even be afraid to eat out of the palm of your hand. You can access by boat from Playa Sosúa, where there are some very interesting boats with glass bottoms that allow you to see the bottom of the sea while you walk the entire Bay of Sosúa.

Snorkel spots in Sosua

There are several snorkel areas, and the best one is called Canyon, or locally known as Los Cabezos. In some areas it can go as deep as 30 feet ( inside the wall ) and you get to see bluehead wrasses, Sergeant majors, blue tangs, yellow tail snapper, and other fish.

Many will also find stands with snorkel gear rentals but if you plan to go serious and swim towards the Canyon ( as opposed of just staying near the shore ) it is best to book with a dive center as a group and get a professional to stay with the group. Another option is to book a powered snorkel tour and have the powered machine cruise you around, quicker though more expensive.

Another snorkel spot, considered the number one is Three Rocks. It does take a boat trip of about 7 minutes so it has to be booked with a tour operator or a diving center. It is located about 300 meters off the coast of Imbert Beach, and the site has three large rock pinnacles with coral and lots of tropical fish such as the sergeant major, bluehead wrasse, French grunt, and blue tang.

People get to snorkel and feed the fish, great for photo ops. Since the site has a max depth of 27 feet (9m), it is also a place used for beginner divers. There are also other species such as moray eels, stingray, peacock flounder, and yellow tail snappers. Snorkeling in Sosua can be an amazing experience, just contact the Sosua Concierge to book this tour today.
