in the Caribbean. Scenic rivers flowing through fertile valleys give way to picturesque mountain ranges smothered in lush, green tropical vegetation. Hundreds of types of trees and exotic plants cover the entire island of Dominica. This island is truly a tropical garden paradise.
About a third of the island’s 75,000 inhabitants reside in its capital city of Roseau. The city has numerous accommodations and restaurants to fill its visitor’s needs. Roseau serves as a starting point for the many adventures that await you in Dominica.
This island is dedicated to preserving its natural beauty and many parts of the island have been designated as national parks. Dominica, like most other Caribbean islands, enjoys an abundance of activities related to sand, sea, and sun. There are many diving and snorkeling opportunities around the island as well as many beautiful beaches, but this is an island that has a multitude of things to do in its interior. Magnificent winding rivers, many with white water rapids, flow through the dense interior of the island and down to the sea. Many of the mountains have spectacular waterfalls and are surrounded by tropical rainforests filled with colorful birds and other wildlife.
Dominica offers so much more than just a sand and sea experience. For those who love towering green mountains, exotic plant and animal life, majestic waterfalls cascading into blue grotto pools, and winding trails that make their way through rainforests that suddenly open up to one spectacular panorama after another, Dominica is a place to be visited and forever remembered.
