Laguna Azul (Tálag)
Laguna Azul
A rainforest pool of vivid blue water formed by streams and small waterfalls, the favourite swimming spot for locals around Tena.
Laguna Azul lies in a rainforest valley near Talag, where a stream forms a string of blue-green pools and small waterfalls among the rocks. You can swim and dive here, and simple food stalls and changing facilities are nearby. It is crowded with local visitors at weekends. The lagoon is about 30 minutes' drive from Tena, and the last stretch is a dirt road. It is often included in rafting or community tour itineraries. After rain the water turns cloudy and the rocks become slippery, so take care.
