Many young people paid 80 dollars for three hours, including drinks. Anyway, there was loud music, and everyone was crowded together to eat, drink, play and snorkel. We snorkeled quietly at the beach. There were a lot of water plants here, and we unexpectedly harvested five turtles, one of which was a small turtle. It was really cute, but I didn’t bring a water camera. The sand was also okay, relatively fine. There were a lot of seaweeds on the left beach that drifted to the shore and looked black, which was quite zan. The next day we went snorkeling again, brought a camera, and encountered other water creatures, which I thought were quite interesting.
Bavaro Beach is the largest beach in Punta Cana. There are many beautiful reefs on this beach, as well as several thatched houses deep in the sea. The water here is very clear, making it an ideal place for snorkeling. There are also many water activities to choose from, and there are many tourists who have a lot of fun.

Boca Chica Beach in Santo Domingo is a large beach with beautiful scenery. The beach here is very wide, and the sand is white and fine, which is very comfortable to walk on. There are also many barbecue restaurants on the beach, where you can taste fresh lobsters, which are not only delicious but also very cheap. If you come here, don't miss it.
The scenery of Boca Chica Beach in Santo Domingo is really beautiful. The sand here is very white and soft, and the color of the sea is clearly layered, from light blue to dark blue, layer by layer, very beautiful. There are also barbecue activities on the beach. The seafood barbecue here is cheap and tastes super delicious. It is definitely worth a try.
