Coastal wetlands with mangroves, shallow lagoons and abundant shorebirds — ideal for reflections, wildlife close-ups and abstract patterns in roots and water. Visit at dawn for misty light and active birds, or at golden hour for warm side-light on mangrove textures. Accessible from Punta Cana resorts but expect limited formal infrastructure and muddy paths; bring insect repellent and water-resistant shoes. Dry season (Dec–Apr) gives clearer skies; check tide times for exposed mudflats and better
