Have you ever snorkelled at Minitas beach? If you haven’t you’ll be surprised at how much there is to see!

The barrier of rocks just a less than 100 metres from the beach is covered with coral and has lots of fish – it’s a very pretty place to explore.

Snorkel hire: USD$4 all day! (normal price $16)

It’s as east as riding a bike – only in the sea!

1/2 and hour in a Water Bee (pedal boat) costs only USD$5! When shared between 4 of you that’s $1.25 each!

(Normal price $22 per 1/2 hour!)

Prepare for Water Bee wars!!

The bouncy bouncy Banana Boat – this is ALWAYS fun, no matter what age you are!

Casa de Campo’s beach Banana Boat has space for up to 5 people, so you and your friends can all have a go together!

Of course the real challenge is actually staying ON the Banana! Seems easy? Give it a try – with the banana bouncing crazily in the waves and ripping around the bends, its VERY hard to stay on!

USD$ 15 per person – for 15 mins of wet and wild fun!

The Hobie Wave / Catamaran is sailing for beginners!

If you’ve ever wondered what it would be like to actually sail a boat – well here is your chance to give it a go in a safe and ‘easy’environment!

The Hobie Wave is apparently very easy to drive and is suitable for children – I look forward to seeing you give this a go, it looks pretty difficult to me!

Cost: USD$14 per hour (normal price USD$56)

At this price – you have to give it a try, come on just this once…..

GIANT HUMAN INFLATABLE BEACH BALLS!

Cost: RD$200 per turn

Here’s how they work:

1. The fun-loving human gets inside the ball

2. The ball is then inflated with the person inside

3. Once inside the ball the person and ball will roll down the sand and into the ocean!

4. Roll, collide and bounce the balls in the ocean!
(Don’t panic – the balls will be contained within the ocean so you won’t float out to sea!)
