The Indigenous Eyes Ecological Park and Reserve (Reserva Ecologica Ojos Indigenas) is a 1,500-acre area owned and operated by the Punta Cana Ecological Foundation. It consists of lowland subtropical forest with twelve freshwater lakes. The whole place is dedicated to conservation and scientific research as well as recreation. Historians discovered that the Taíno Indians, former inhabitants of the island, referred to the lakes as "eyes" (ojos in Spanish) because of their distinctive shape and formation. Numerous exhibits describe the cultural and natural history of the island to all its visitors. They can visit an iguana habitat, a sugarcane exhibit, or a petting zoo with many animals that are common in the Dominican Republic.
