Isla Saona Dominican Republic Postcard

Isla Saona, a small island located just off the southeastern tip of the Dominican Republic, is a picture-perfect tropical paradise and a part of the Cotubanamá National Park. It is a major destination for day trips, drawing visitors with its stunning turquoise waters, endless stretches of palm-fringed white sand beaches, and a relaxed, laid-back atmosphere. One of its unique attractions is the 'Natural Swimming Pool,' a shallow sandbar in the middle of the ocean where visitors can swim and wade in waist-deep, crystal-clear water and spot large starfish.
