Cayo Levantado Resort, a luxury all-inclusive private island resort in the Samaná Bay of the Dominican Republic, announces new programming for its prime winter whale-watching season from January through March 2025. During this time, thousands of humpback whales migrate to the surrounding waters for their annual breeding season.

The resort is debuting a new eco-experience this winter, led by passionate environmental on-staff curators and the Eco-Bahia Foundation who guide both guests and staff in exploring and protecting the island’s exquisite ecosystem.

During the new 45-minute Eco-Walk, the expert team will share insights into the island’s geological history, current environmental challenges, and exciting conservation solutions to preserve its natural wonders. The tour includes a visit to Cayo Farola, the resort’s observatory that often offers front-row views of majestic humpback whales who migrate to the area to mate and give birth in the region’s warm waters between January and March each year.

Guests are provided with binoculars to view the acrobatic displays of these magnificent mammals more easily. This is the perfect way to connect with nature and learn about Cayo Levantado’s dedicated efforts to protect its natural surroundings.

Following the excitement of whale-watching, guests can unwind and find relaxation in the resort’s remarkable tropical garden-filled wellness center, Yubarta. Aptly named “humpback whale” in the Taino language, Yubarta offers an extensive menu of expertly crafted experiences tailored for each traveler seeking to emphasize particular focus areas.

The exclusive holistic center features an expansive open-air meditation space, five enchanting cenotes, three jacuzzis, and wellness programming including aerial yoga, Tibetan singing bowls, therapeutic and rejuvenating treatments, and much more. The included activities at the resort are expertly curated and distinctly Dominican.

The resort features 218 spacious guest rooms and villas, and five restaurants and bars featuring the best local ingredients with many grown right on-property, including the only slow food movement restaurant in the Dominican Republic.

The brand aims to focus on renewable energies and a robust waste management strategy, in addition to opting for native gardening and landscaping. The project collaborates with local designers, interior decorators, and architects, ultimately contributing to the area’s economic development and the integration of its distinctive culture and people.
