Typical Schedule and Itinerary for a Week on the Silver Bank
Each trip is an all-inclusive week-long cruise. You’ll board the boat in Puerto Plata, Dominican Republic on a Saturday afternoon and will disembark the following Saturday morning. The daily schedule on the Silver Bank is planned to maximize our time on and in the water with the whales. Please note that the schedule can change and is provided as a guideline.
