Economy Edit

Aguadulce District is an Industrial Zone dedicated to process cane sugar, rice, animal feed, shrimp, and salt production via evaporation of sea water. The water is allowed to enter fields at high tide; its exit is then blocked, and evaporation caused by the sun leaves sea salt, which is then gathered and packaged, along with seafood for export to other markets abroad. Other activities are entertainment activities in casinos, agricultural activities, commerce and restaurants.

Some significant infrastructure in Aguadulce district are Aguadulce Port, Aguadulce airport, Salao Beach. It can be mentioned that there is also offices of the Ministerio de Trabajo, Organo Judicial, Juzgado Municipal Civil, along with those of both Penal and Public Ministries.
