The boat slips away from shore and the Atlantic breeze pushes cool salt across your face. In minutes the shoreline of Punta Cana recedes into a line of palms while the captain points to a shallow reef below — a tangle of coral heads and darting fish that seem to invite you in. The guide runs a concise safety briefing, and soon you’re clipped into a Scubadoo, the underwater scooter that lets you pilot just beneath the surface with minimal effort.
