The Battle of Tortuguero was the first naval battle of the Dominican War of Independence and was fought on April 15, 1844 at Tortuguero, Azua Province. A force of 3 Dominican schooners led by Commander Juan Bautista Cambiaso, defeated a force of 3 vessels of the Haitian Navy. Though it was a minor naval battle engagement, it determined the naval supremacy of the Dominican Republic over Haiti until the end of the war. ==Prelude to Battle==
On March 31, 1844 news from French Admiral De Moges from the frigate ''La Neréide'', warned of a flotilla of Haitian vessels that had been raiding the coast of the Ocoa Bay and tranporsting supplies to the Haitian Army in Azua. He recommended President Tomás de Bobadilla y Briones of the Junta Central Gubernativa, to order all ships in Santo Domingo be used for war. Conscripts for the new navy gathered at ''Puerta de la Misericordia'', among them were Juan Alejandro Acosta, José Antonio Sanabia, Joaquín Orta, Teodoro Ariza, Pedro Tomás Garrido y Fermín González. Juan Alejandro Acosta together with some fellow merchants, armed two schooners. Acosta received the schooner ''Eleonore'' (renamed ''San José'') from the British merchant Abraham Cohen and was followed by the Italian merchant Juan Bautista Maggiolo who received the schooner ''María Chica'' from the Catalan merchants José and Francisco Ginebra. Both schooners set sail in early April to ''Aguas de la Estancia'', Baní to meet there with Commander Juan Bautista Cambiaso, another Italian merchant.
