DISCOVER DOMINICA

Here, Nature Isn’t Something You Simply See.
It Is Something You Feel.

365 rivers. 9 volcanoes. Lush Green Rainforest
A boiling lake, hidden waterfalls and natural wonders
Dominica doesn’t just invite you to explore nature.
It invites you to feel it.

Volcanoes

Nine of them, all still breathing.
Steam through the trees, warm rivers underfoot. The island is young and still making itself.

Dominica's Boiling Lake steaming inside its crater

Boiling Lake

The world’s second-largest, hidden deep in the rainforest.

A six-hour journey into the rainforest leads to a place where the earth seems to breathe. Wrapped in mist and volcanic steam, Boiling Lake is a reminder that Dominica is true hidden gem.

Valley of Desolation

Where the rainforest stops.
Sulphur, ochre and grey. Hot streams cut through bare ground, and nothing grows.
04

Waterfalls

Tra­falgar. Middleham. Victoria.
Water falling from the rainforest into pools of cool, clear water. Follow the trail, hear the rush, and step into nature.

365 Rivers

One for every day of the year.
They braid the whole island: gorges, hot springs, swimming holes and river mouths.

Rainforest

Two-thirds of the island, never cleared.
Giant ferns, elfin woodland, cloud sitting in the canopy at midday.

Sisserou Parrot

Found here and nowhere else on earth.
Purple and green, high in the cloud forest of Morne Diablotin. Listen before you look.

Champagne Reef

Swim through rising bubbles.
Volcanic vents fizz up through the seabed. Warm water, coral, and the sound of soda.

Sperm Whales

Resident families, all year.
The deep drops fast off the west coast, so the whales stay close to shore.

Scotts Head

Where two seas meet.
A thin volcanic spine with the Atlantic on one side and the Caribbean on the other.
