Dominican Republic Waterfalls

The Dominican Republic features a diverse range of cascades, from the 83-meter high Salto de Aguas Blancas in the temperate mountains of Constanza to the 27 limestone pools of Damajagua in Puerto Plata. Jarabacoa’s Salto de Jimenoa and Salto de Baiguate offer access to the central cordillera's river systems, while the Samaná Peninsula is home to the 40-meter Salto El Limón. These sites vary from easily accessible roadside stops like Salto de Socoa to remote wilderness treks in La Jalda National Park.
