Natural beauty abounds on this wild island, a speck on the far eastern side of the Caribbean Sea. Whale watching is a favorite activity here, as the island lays in the path of several migration routes. Dolphins greet cruise ships and tour boats, too, while coral gardens teem with colorful fish beneath Dominica’s calm, cool waves.

Visitors sticking to dry land will find other lures in Dominica’s rain forests. A popular shore excursion calls at the 40-foot Trafalgar Falls and the Emerald Pool, two awe-inspiring sights at the center of a national park. Another tour traces the flow of the Layou River as it cuts across the island and through a verdant valley, creating a number of quiet spots in which wildlife thrives. Jeeps, aerial trams, inner tubes floating on a swift stream – a variety of unusual conveyances await to introduce visitors to the untamed greenery of Dominica.
