Highlights
Explore the Oviedo Lagoon, one of the biggest treasures of the Jaragua National Park and home to a variety of wildlife. The Lagoon consists of 24 islands of different sizes and vegetation and is considered to be the best place for aquatic bird observation on the island. Discover the beauty of the Oviedo lagoon on a boat ride through this unique ecosystem. Make a stop on one of the many islands, so called Iguana Island. Go on a hike across the small island through a somewhat barren landscape where cacti dominate the scenery. Once you arrive on a scenic outpost take some time to appreciate the beautiful view over the lagoon, the Caribbean Sea, the Jaragua national park and the mountains of Bahoruco. On the way back to the hotel you make a stop in Los Patos where you enjoy a typical lunch and can take a refreshing dip in the river.

About Barahona
Barahona is a port town on the Dominican Republic's quiet south-west coast, set between the Bahoruco mountains, the Caribbean and Lake Enriquillo.
Barahona is the main town of the Dominican Republic's south-west, about 125 km west of Santo Domingo, where the dry slopes of the Sierra de Bahoruco fall to the Caribbean. The town has a seafront promenade, a small port and a busy market, and the province around it has some of the country's least developed coast. Larimar, a pale-blue gemstone found nowhere else in the world, is mined in the mountains of the province.
