Whether you go diving or admire it from the comforts of your boat, the Caves of Peñón reveal the richest underwater marine life in Bayahíbe. Part of the boat excursion from Bayahíbe to Saona Island, the caves are as mystical as they look. The sea flows through this series of dramatic, rugged caves lined along the western edge of Cotubanamá National Park. Certified divers can sign up for dives to go beyond the surface and explore the caves’ deep waters, where spotted eagle rays, sharks, and turtles thrive.
