About this experience
This 1,500-acre ecological reserve is home to twelve natural springs considered sacred by the Taíno people, offering a unique blend of environmental conservation and indigenous history. Unlike other water-based excursions in Punta Cana, the focus here is on environmental education: a specialized guide explains real conservation efforts for local flora and fauna as the group walks through protected trails and swims in crystal-clear cenotes. The visit to the organic apiary with honey tasting adds an authentic touch rarely found in traditional tours in the area.
