Dominica
Here is a fantasy island of rain forest greenery and bloomery nestling alongside rugged mountain peaks, sometimes obscured by clouds and fog. Dominica was discovered by Christopher Columbus on a Sunday and gave the island the Spanish name for Sunday. The island's vast unspoiled rainforest, its countless rivers, and its amazing boiling lake, are some of the island's on-land attractions. But while it may be the "hiker's paradise", many avid divers have found it equally appealing for its gorgeous underwater world. Dominica has great mountain scenery - a 1500 meter high volcano, sparkling streams, waterfalls and lush green forests.
Dominica is reputed to be the finest place in the Caribbean to see whales and dolphins, Dominica also offers fine snorkeling around beautiful reefs where marine life is abundant. And since Dominica goes undiscovered by many tourists, it allows the traveler to have a unique and personal experience. Roseau is the capital of the island. It's a nice and quite busy city that deserves a visit. It is also a good starting point for visiting Emerald Pool. Carib Territory is another must see. Here you find the Carib people living in a 3,700 acre reserve.
The main historic sight is Fort Shirley once an important English outpost but now reclamed by jungle. It's a lot like Temple of Doom !
Dominica can be reached by minor aircrafts from neighbouring islands and by ferry from Guadeloupe and Martinique .
