Ocean World, Confresi, D.R.

Our moorage in this new marina close to Puerto Plata included admission to the Ocean World Marine Park. This was our closest place to bring the boat to get to the airport and we were pleasantly surprised with what they had to offer. So before we headed off with all of the girls to “experience” the D.R. we spent the day here watching shows and playing with the animals. The girls snorkeled in a giant aquarium, had their picture taken with the dolphins and hand fed and swam with stingrays and nurse sharks.

The staff of the complex are very friendly, it didn’t take the girls (referred to as the Spice Girls by numerous staff) long to get to know a number of them. They even were invited to a special dolphin training time and were allowed to pat Boomer. They have also been invited back to a free swim with the dolphins, so they are working on us to return here.

Now if you think traveling around the Caribbean with two good looking teenage girls was interestng you can imagine what it is like with four. "BOY MAGNETS"!

Next stop Luperon. It is about a 17 mile sail up the coast.
