Description

Join a boat ride through the Los Haitises National Park and swim in the 14 natural pools with waterfalls of the Hotel Caño Hondo. Enjoy a unique experience in the coastal north of the Dominican Republic. Meet at the Hotel Caño Hondo entrance. From this hotel, located on the outskirts of the Sabana de la Mar, take a 10-minute drive to the Caño Hondo pier. At the pier, begin a 2-hour boat ride through the Los Haitises National Park. Sail through the mangroves of this protected natural area and the San Lorenzo Bay. Continue the journey along the Cayo de Los Pájaros and the old Pier La Perla. Afterward, continue the boat ride visiting the La Arena Cave and La Línea Cave, two remarkable grottos adorned with paintings and petroglyphs from indigenous civilizations. After exploring these caverns, return to the boat and start the journey back to the Caño Hondo pier. Once you arrive, head back to the Hotel Caño Hondo, where you can rest and enjoy a delicious Criollan lunch. The menu includes green salad, potato salad, minutas de pescado (small, seasoned fish fillets, breaded and fried), chicharrón de pollo (chicken cracklings), pasta, white rice, string beans, moro de gandules con coco (traditional Dominican dish of rice, beans, and coconut milk), and a sweet coconut treat for dessert. Beverages include mineral water, a soft drink, or coffee with milk. After lunch, rest at the hotel's terrace. You'll also have 4 hours of free time to enjoy the 14 natural pools with waterfalls in Caño Hondo.
