Relatively undeveloped, mountainous Dominica boasts one of the Caribbean's most spectacular natural environments and is ideally suited to nature lovers and Caribbean aficionados who want to experience the less tame side of the region and a touch of eco-adventure. It's known as the ‘Nature Island of the Caribbean’ with good reason. The proud local population will give you a genuinely warm welcome and help you make the most of your time on their island home whether it's spent whale-watching, snorkelling, scuba-diving, bird-watching, hiking or kayaking. If your idea of nightlife is to watch the stars in the sky, then Dominica is for you.
