Dominica Travel Guide

The Caribbean island Dominica is a medley of brooding volcanic peaks, gushing mountain streams, dense forests, quiet lakes and spouting geysers; this is a diverse and beautiful land. Given its natural assets and warm and welcoming locals, Dominica should be a bustling tourism hotspot, and despite being one of the poorest in the region, crime is relatively low.

A marked lack of pumping nightlife and no direct flights to Dominica from the UK means it remains off the radar for many travellers, but those partial to hiking amid thick tropical rainforest and gazing at bubbling lakes, will find this sunny green isle has many charms.
