Dudú Lagoon

Dudú Lagoon is a freshwater lake reaching 32 meters deep, surrounded by limestone cliffs and dense tropical forest on the northern coast of the Dominican Republic. Cave systems run beneath the water's surface, creating underground chambers that can be explored by visitors.

The area around this lagoon has been inhabited for thousands of years, as shown by pre-Columbian paintings in a nearby cave system. These artworks left by the Taíno people provide evidence of early settlements in this coastal region.

Families come to the lagoon on weekends to swim, share meals, and jump from natural rock ledges. These water activities form an important part of how local communities enjoy their free time together.

The site is open daily and offers swimming areas, cave tours, and cliff activities for visitors. Bring water and wear shoes with good grip, as the paths can be wet and slippery from the tropical environment.

Underwater tunnels connect this lagoon to a neighboring natural lake, allowing divers to move between the two water bodies beneath the surface. This feature makes it a rare location for cave diving exploration.
