Discover a Hidden Paradise: Caño Hondo & Los Haitises National Park

If you're looking for the most authentic nature experience in the Dominican Republic, this tour is it.

The journey takes you deep into Los Haitises National Park — one of the country’s most protected and biodiverse areas, known for its limestone islands, caves, and mangrove forests.

Unlike typical beach excursions, this adventure combines waterfalls, culture, wildlife, and untouched landscapes in one unforgettable day.

With Booking Adventures, you don’t just visit—you experience the real Dominican Republic.

Why This Tour Is Different

Most tours rush. This one doesn’t.

This experience is designed to combine:

Jungle exploration
Cultural history (Taíno caves)
Natural swimming pools & waterfalls
Boat adventure through mangroves

It’s a complete eco-tour, not just a stop-and-go excursion.

You’ll navigate mangrove channels, visit caves with ancient indigenous art, and relax in natural pools fed by mountain rivers.

What You’ll Experience

1. Boat Adventure Through Mangroves & Limestone Islands

Your day begins with a scenic boat ride through San Lorenzo Bay, surrounded by dramatic rock formations called mogotes.

As you glide through the mangroves, keep an eye out for:

Pelicans and frigate birds
Exotic fish and marine life
Dense tropical vegetation

This ecosystem is one of the richest in the Caribbean.

2. Explore Ancient Taíno Caves

Step into history as you visit caves like:

Cueva de la Arena
Cueva de la Línea

Inside, you’ll find petroglyphs and pictographs created by the Taíno people, the island’s original inhabitants.

These caves were once used as shelters—and even by pirates later on.

3. Swim in Caño Hondo Natural Pools & Waterfalls

This is the highlight.

At Caño Hondo, you’ll discover:

Natural pools fed by the Jivales River
Small cascading waterfalls
Crystal-clear jungle water

There are multiple pools at different levels, creating a natural water park in the middle of the rainforest.

Perfect for relaxing, swimming, or just enjoying nature.

4. Authentic Dominican Lunch in Nature

After exploring, enjoy a traditional Dominican lunch surrounded by lush tropical scenery.

Typical dishes include:

Rice, beans, and coconut specialties
