    I live a 15 minute hike from the lake, so perhaps I'm a bit biased. But this is a really beautiful and under-appreciated destination. If you want a quiet spot frequented by only a few locals and some fishing boats, come to Balan down the gravel road out of Ganthier (right before the cemetery after the police station, take a left). On a calm day you can see a flock of flamingoes. Haven't seen a crock or cayman yet. They usually hang out on the calmer waters of the DR side. Walk a bit down the shoreline and you can find some nice, though somewhat Rocky and rough bathing spots. Wear shoes since there are rocks, shells, and some broken glass.

    (Translated by Google) Lake Azuéi is the largest lake in Haiti. It is connected to Lake Enriquillo in the Dominican part, in an underground filtration. Lake Azueí is located between the border of Haiti and the Dominican Republic. It is the second largest lake on the island after Lake Enriquillo. (Original) Lago Azuéi es el lago más grande de Haití. Está conectado con el Lago Enriquillo en parte Dominicana, en una filtración subterránea. El lago Azueí está situado entre la frontera de Haití y de la República Dominicana. Es el segundo lago más grande de la isla después del la Lago Enriquillo.

    Very beautiful place, would recommend it to anyone local or foreign. The water is so blue, really deserve its name “Bassin Bleu”. On top of it, it’s affordable. We get a guide to take us there, they got safety vest for those that are not good swimmers. We enjoyed the walking and hiking part to get to the main waterfall. Come experience it for yourself

    Deep blue pools of beauty and bliss. Our guide was knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful navigating the trail. They helped take our phones/cameras across the water too! We jumped off a waterfall, swam in three different pools of water and had a blast. No need to spend hours and hours here. You may need a guide to get you to the village first. Totally worth it!

    It definitely worth the trip from Jacmel. I took a 40 mins moto (motorcycle ride). It costs around 250 G. The water is gorgeous blue.

    Such an amazing place!! The views on the drive up are incredible, the hike is beautiful, and the water is so gorgeous and refreshing. Our guides Mackenzie & Luckson were the best! They picked fruit for us to try while we were hiking and they helped us across the slippery spots. We purchased fresh coconut once we got to the last waterfall and it was delicious! Make sure you ask about the mermaids that live in the waterfall. There is a store at the beginning of the hike that sells beautiful art. This place is a must see if you are in the area!

    Be careful in this place , especially for the guide , if you see anyone's helping you , ask him what does he want ? If not they will ask for money even that they didn't announce themselves as guides , they'll probably read what already marked to you on the rocks , it's more like a reading lesson be careful

    Something of an oasis. The place of a lot of destruction after a hurricane a few years ago, following the earthquake. A very beautiful place.

    This is a fun trip is you are ever in Southeast Haiti. It is about an hour drive outside of Jacmel through the hills and along some mountains. You will definitely get hit up by the guides for some extra money despite paying ahead of time. There is opportunity to jump off a waterfall if you should so choose. No food or drinks along the way, but there are drinks at the top and entrance to the attraction. Be prepared to walk on very uneven terrain, rock climb down without harnesses, and cross creeks and rivers that can be flowing fast. It is not recommended for less able bodied individuals. This is not ADA accessible.

    It's a long drive to get there and the road is rough. When we got there the nice guide told us it would be a 10 mn walk to the falls. It wasn't... It's quite a walk and it's very slippery so you need to bring the appropriate footwear and your sense of adventure. Once we got there we found out that the drive and the trek were worth it. IT. IS. BEAUTIFUL. the only downside was that it rained the night before so the water wasn't blue. But we had a great time!!

    I visited June 25, 2019 We met with our tour guide Jimmy at Bassin Bleu and from there we had about a 15 minute hike to the bassin. You see little basins along the way until you get to the main attraction. It was so beautiful we did not want to leave.

    Truly breath taking gorgeous! The water is nice and cool and fresh! Worth the bumpy drive!

  • 5/5 Random B. 6 years ago on Google
    Beaitiful, exatcly as it appears on photos. Do not jump if you're not a good swimmer. Take a tour guide with you Pascal is a good one

    One of the many parts of Haiti that are magically beautiful. Jacmel is home to my beautiful grandmother who raised me. I visited Bassin Bleu a few years back, it was such a memorable experience. I was in the water, and I started to vocally reflect on how the place reminds me of the song "Ayiti Cherie" (Haiti my love), while I stated that a group of guys started to sing that song to me. It was a beautiful experience. Haiti has a lot of work to be done but I can attest there is much beauty.
