Dominica

The Caribbean's "Nature Island," where rainforests, waterfalls, hot springs and a boiling lake remain pristine, ideal for hiking and diving.

Dominica is a volcanic island nation in the Windward Islands of the eastern Caribbean, between Guadeloupe and Martinique, with steep mountains and dense rainforest. Morne Trois Pitons National Park is a World Heritage site, with the Boiling Lake, the Valley of Desolation and lush waterfalls; the Waitukubuli National Trail, a long-distance path, runs the length of the island. At Champagne Reef off the southwest coast you can feel volcanic bubbles rising from the seabed, sperm whales can be seen offshore year-round, and the east coast is home to the Kalinago Territory of the Caribbean's indigenous Kalinago people. The dry season runs from December to April. Douglas-Charles Airport is the main airport, and ferries connect to neighboring islands.
