Last weekend I went with a few coworkers to the provinces of Barahona and Pedernales. The purpose of the trip was to go to Bahia de las Aguilas, a beach located in the Parque Nacional (National Park) Jaragua. Although we spent way too much time in the car, it was well worth the trip.
Along the way we stopped to see some Taino cave carvings.
...And a park inhabited by iguanas. Can you spot the baby iguana? 
There he is!
"Do Not Enter with Firearms."
Bahia de las Aguilas is the most beautiful beach I've seen in a long time. Recently a Spanish resort corporation tried to buy the land in order to build a resort. Environmentalists lodged a protest and, fortunately, were able to prevent the resort from being built. Hard to imagine this beautiful landscape marred by an all-inclusive!

Those pictures of the water make me start salivating. Literally. I'm lucky I didn't drool.
