Lemon Lagoon Bay
This beach in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic is the Caribbean ideal: clear water ideal for swimming and soft white sand backed by palm trees where you can chill out to your heart’s content.
The Basics
Snorkelers and divers will be in their element at Lemon Lagoon bay beach, also known as Playa Limon, where you’ll find a coral reef just offshore that’s home to trunkfish, parrotfish, green turtles, and more. There’s a small lagoon just behind the beach that is lined with shady foliage.
If the idea of spending the entire day on the beach sounds boring, ramp up your adventure with an adrenaline-pumping quad dune buggy tour or jump on horseback for a romantic ride along the sand.
Things to Know Before You Go
- Amenities are limited on the beach so bring water, sunscreen, and a hat with you.
- Dune buggies have manual transmission and you must know how to drive manual in order to take part in a tour.
- Resort amenities can be found at nearby La Vacama.
How to Get There
Lemon Lagoon Bay is located around 50 miles north along the coast from Punta Cana. There’s limited public transport to more remote areas so it’s best to drive, take a taxi or join a guided tour with transport provided. The closest airport is Punta Cana International.
