About this experience
In addition to the Dudú Lagoon, a few minutes away you can find the Blue Lagoon (“Laguna Azul” in Spanish), whose water will draw you in. It’s a natural freshwater pool that’s so crystal clear that it’s easy to see the bottom and invites you to go for a refreshing swim. It’s the favourite among many Cabrera families due to how calm its waters are, allowing families with children to go for a relaxing swim without having to worry about waves.

Blue Lake
In the north of the Dominican Republic , between Rio San Juan and Nagua, lies the town of Cabrera, near the beautiful lagoon El Dudu, which makes little advertising. This park has 2 bathrooms, a large bathroom bears the name Dudu The Blue Lagoon and the other, slightly smaller, but no less attractive . Furthermore, there is a Taino cave of a length approximately 30 meters has , plus some landscaped gardens and facilities . In the big lake there are several ways to jump into the lagoon. Ropes were ( pendulum - type ) installed for people of all ages. After a couple of hours in Blue Lagoon we drive you to playa grande beach, which is located at the north coast of the Dominican Republic in a beautiful area of lush vegetation enriched by a changing palette of green and blue, rolling hills and the Atlantic Ocean. It is near San Juan River. Playa grande one of the most beautiful beaches in the country and the longest on the north coast that carries its name very well.

Playa Caleton
Located about 1km east of town, this small, peaceful bay with tawny sand, almond trees and towering palms is a good place to spend an afternoon.
60 minutes here
Playa Grande
Here you will stop for lunch and have time to enjoy of the crystal clear water and of this golden sandy beach . On the Ámbar coast, near Río San Juan, one of the most beautiful beaches in the country and the longest on the North coast that bears its name very well. It has a wide strip of golden sand for several kilometers bordered by coconut trees, where one can isolate oneself. Before it was the favorite destination of the Dominicans during the weekends and now it is surrounded by large hotel complexes. But it is still accessible to visitors, who come from afar to enjoy its transparent waters. Restaurants, bars and musicians enliven the central part. To be calmer, it is best to go in the afternoon. Pay special attention to currents and heavy swells in winter.

Blue lagoon & beaches
Lots of fun visiting 2 beaches & plantation. Ending at Blue Lagoon. Playa Grande was the nicest beach. Blue lagoon was pretty. They offered an additional opportunity for an extra $2 to drop from a zip line into water. The drop was high , 30 feet. My husband & friend did it. The friend was hurt by the life jacket. & the landing. I would not recommend it if your life jacket is not fitting properly. It slid up to his chin , bit hit lip causing an injury.. Also hurt his male parts. So the trip didn’t end well for him. Everything else was good. Lunch was a typical Dominican buffet.

Not a 4 star at all
Blue Bay Villa - Dorado Review - Please read in full The Good: The food was very good, with plenty of selection and a different theme night in the buffet every 7 days. The Bad: We requested a room on the ground floor and were told there were none available, even though we booked two months in advance. When there finally was a room on the ground floor, it was below standard. There was no blow dryer or makeup mirror, the fridge served more as a storage area, and t 6he phone was merely decoration. They provided a blow dryer and makeup mirror a few hours later. We had to use one of our key cards to keep the air conditioning running at all times. The front desk is by no means of any help. We had informed them several times that our phone was not connected, and they simply ignored our complaint. Several nights we needed to contact the front desk and could not as it was a clear safety violation. The worst part: It was day 5 of our 10-day trip, and friends we made on this trip, started becoming severely ill. We met 6 couples, between Sunday and Tuesday of the 12 people, 7 came down with this illness. Two of the people had a major conversation with the general manager informing them, of this epidemic and they were told no other guests were complaining. By Wednesday, we knew of about 60 guests suffering the same illness. We were lucky not to have caught whatever this was, but it was brutal. Management tried to convince them that perhaps the "few" guests experiencing any illness may have drunk tap water, which should not be done. It was not from drinking the tap water. Some sort of virus was going around the resort, and management did not take responsibility to minimize the spread of whatever this was. Even some of the staff were sick, and still, nothing was being done. The two guests who confronted management, asking for a refund as they wished to leave and go elsewhere, were told that if they discussed this matter with any other guests, they would be evicted, and a penalty fine would be imposed on them. If you are looking for a cheap all-inclusive resort, this is the place, but if you value your trip, stay away.

Great visit
Great visit. Food was not delicious, the places visited really great. We really enjoyed it. Lagoon was beautiful, even though there is not much to discover in the places they are beautiful.

If you are considering the blue lagoon please read
Make no mistake. This excursion sucks. They say drive time is 1.5-2 hours. Not. Beaches you visit are very pretty. But the third world tourist hawks detract as does the piles of garbage. Also, it costs money to use the bathroom at on of the beaches. Lunch was solid C-. The actual Blue lagoon is a complete bust. It is two small inland lakes in limestone formation. There were some pretty plants but far from botanical garden. Thank God the facility had a bar. The day would have been better bobbing for Dominican yams in a vat of Mama Juana.

A fun, memorable day with good friends!
Very good is a stretch, but average isn't a very fair rating either. Someone has taken a few liberties with the photos shown. The DuDu lagoon is black and not at all blue in the center as shown. The Blue Lagoon was very clear and cold - great place to take photos. The grounds are pretty. The beach you stop at is not as nice as shown - trash is everywhere - litter as far as you can see. They don't take any pride in their surroundings - you see trash all over the island - it's sad. We only got 50 minutes at the beach - could have used more time. If you have to use the bathroom they charge you at the beach. Not the other places. The lunch was pretty good. You spend more time on the bus going from place to place vs. actually enjoying each stop. The mangrove ride on the boat was interesting - we happen to venture out during a lightening storm - we questioned the wisdom of this (I'm a lifetime boater)... the guide was nice and informative. Our driver was great - bless him, we had monsoon rains on the way back to the resort and it took 4 hours to get back - a bridge was washed out and we had to wait for the water to go down. It was nice to do once, but no need to do it again.

Why this scores 59
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Full-Day Blue Lagoon Tour in Dominican Republic: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Puerto Plata.
How much does Full-Day Blue Lagoon Tour in Dominican Republic cost?
+
Prices start at $85 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Puerto Plata usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Full-Day Blue Lagoon Tour in Dominican Republic take?
+
Plan for about 9 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Puerto Plata is not rushed.
Is Full-Day Blue Lagoon Tour in Dominican Republic worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 59 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3.9/5 across 8 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Puerto Plata, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Full-Day Blue Lagoon Tour in Dominican Republic?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Full-Day Blue Lagoon Tour in Dominican Republic suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 9-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Full-Day Blue Lagoon Tour in Dominican Republic?
+
Around 3 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Puerto Plata can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Puerto Plata and add a light layer if any part of the 9-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Full-Day Blue Lagoon Tour in Dominican Republic start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Puerto Plata within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Puerto Plata?
+
On Outty we rank every Puerto Plata experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Monkeyland and Zipline Adventure from Puerto Plata, Monkeyland Puerto Plata, Puerto Plata Highlights City Tours from amber cove and Taino bay. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Puerto Plata?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Puerto Plata?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
