About this experience

First we will stop at the mini zoo, see the typical animals, birds and then continue to the plantation.
amazed with the plantation you can also enjoy different fruits
The next stop is at Playa Caleton where the waters are calm and crystal clear
then we continue to the blue dudu lagoon
here are a different ways to enjoy the pool.
There are several platforms of varying height which allow you to jump into the water (the tallest platform is quite the rush!) Or you can hang onto a metal frame zip line and let go when you’re zooming over the water.
There are also stairs that allow access into the pool if you don’t want to jump or take a zip line.

In the thick humidity of the Dominican Republic, the cool water of the lagoon is more than refreshing.
Plus, it’s fun to watch others in your group jump into the water from the platforms while you swim.
(Then stop in playa grande to have lunch and enjoy the beach.
The remaining hours of the itinerary are two hours of round trip transportation)
