About this experience
Isla Catalina was discovered in 1494 by navigator Christopher Columbus on the second trip he made to the American continent and named after the daughter of Queen Isabella of Castile, but it is also known as Isla Ikiita and is called by local indigenous people as Labanea or Toeya. It is part of the trio of adjacent islands in the southeast of the Dominican Republic, along with the Saône and Catalinite, the Saône being the only inhabited island. They waited for the Spanish ships passing by to attack and rob them, which is interesting for lovers of these ancient stories.
