Description
Take a small group trip to Los Haitises national park staring from Punta Cana. Boat ride at the mangroves in Cano Hondo river. By foot, traverse the unique landscape of Los Haitises with its limestone karst plateau, conical hills, sinkholes, and caverns.
Explore the islets and mangrove forests of San Lorenzo Bay and see low-flying birds in Cayo de los Pájaros, between the Boca del Infierno and El Naranjo Arriba. Stop at many mogotes and atolls scattered throughout the coast that surrounds the park, and identify dozens of native birds along the way.

After this visiting local Cuisine restaurant for lunch and travel to Esmeralda beach for Free time. Esmeralda bay is one of the last Birgin Beaches in the Dominican Republic. Take time to explore!
