Why Barahona?
These days, domestic travelers and international nature connoisseurs are the most frequent visitors. The striking natural attractions of this region are incomparable. It boasts the largest lake in the Caribbean, a spectacular panoramic highway with vistas along the coast, a mountain parador that overlooks a remarkable chasm, scorchingly hot, dry forests that lie not far from cooler highland pine tree forests, as well as being one of the most significant fruit-producing areas in the country.
Beaches along the Barahona-Enriquillo coastal highway include the pebble beaches of Quemaito and San Rafael, with its natural pools that are filled by a tumbling mountain spring. Next is Paraiso, an aptly named "paradise" of intense turquoise waters in a calm and crystalline bay. There are spectacular views to be had upon approaching the small town of Enriquillo and its rough-watered beach, where a small cemetery overlooks three shades of blue seawater. Cabo Rojo is a lovely white-sanded beach en-route to Pedernales, just one kilometer before Bahía de las Aguilas. The sea off the coast of Pedernales is considered one of the best scuba-diving sites in the Caribbean.
