    The 3 Eyes National Park

    Step into one of Santo Domingo’s most stunning natural wonders, the famous Three Eyes Cave, a set of underground lagoons surrounded by rock formations and tropical vegetation. You will descend a path between limestone walls until you reach the three lakes of crystal clear waters, each with a different tone and depth: Lake Sulfur, Lake Ladies and Lake Blue. Throughout the tour, your expert guide will tell you how this cave was used by the Taíno, the first inhabitants of the island, for sacred rituals and as a source of water. You can also cross on a handcrafted raft to the hidden fourth lake, a natural sight that will leave you speechless.
