Bassin Bleu

Parks & Nature · Hispaniola, Haiti

Hidden in the jungle hills above Jacmel, Bassin Bleu is a chain of cobalt-blue pools linked by waterfalls and framed by mossy rock walls. Local guides lead the short hike between the basins and help visitors scramble down to Bassin Clair, the deepest and most striking pool, where you can swim beneath the falls. The shallower pools along the way suit families with children.
