Los Patos Beach
Los Patos Beach, located on the southern coast of Barahona in the Dominican Republic, is a distinctive natural attraction unlike any other in the Caribbean. Instead of soft sand, the beach is covered with smooth pebbles, creating a unique landscape that fascinates visitors. The highlight of the area is the Los Patos River, recognized as one of the shortest rivers in the Caribbean. Its clear, cool waters form natural pools that are popular for swimming and relaxing before heading to the ocean waves. Surrounding restaurants and kiosks serve fresh seafood and Dominican specialties, making it an authentic cultural and natural experience. Los Patos Beach is the perfect stop for travelers looking to explore beyond traditional beaches and discover the hidden gems of Barahona.
