Getting there

Car

Start from the center of Samaná and head east on Avenida Libertad. Continue straight for about 1.5 kilometers until you reach the intersection with the Carretera Samaná - Las Terrenas. Turn left onto this road and drive for approximately 12 kilometers. Look for signs towards Bahía de Samaná. Once you reach the waterfront area, find a parking spot near the harbor. From there, you will need to arrange for a boat transfer to Vigía Cay, which is located just off the coast.

Public Transportation

Take a guagua (shared minibus) from Samaná to Las Terrenas. The guaguas leave from the designated bus station in Samaná and cost around 100 DOP. The journey takes about 30 minutes. Once you arrive in Las Terrenas, head towards the beach area where you will find local boat operators offering trips to Vigía Cay. The boat ride will cost approximately 500 DOP per person. Make sure to confirm the return schedule for your convenience.

Boat Transfer

After parking your car in the harbor area or arriving in Las Terrenas by guagua, you will need to hire a boat to take you to Vigía Cay. Several local operators provide this service. It's recommended to negotiate the price beforehand, which typically ranges from 500 to 1,500 DOP depending on the size of the boat and the number of passengers. The boat ride takes about 15-30 minutes, depending on sea conditions.
