Dominica is the -Nature Island of the Caribbean-. Here, rainbows abound and mists rise gently from lush green valleys and fall softly over blue-green peaks. Rivers framed by banks of giant ferns rush and tumble to the sea. Trees sprout orchids. Hidden within the most diverse and luxuriant tropical rainforest in the Americas are gems including the unique Boiling Lake, Emerald Pool and Trafalgar Waterfalls.

Dominica offers an incomparable opportunity for the avid nature lover to experience a relatively unspoiled and unchanged Caribbean island paradise - an island where one enjoys the fruits of the soil, the rich culture of its friendly people, and where one can meet the Carib Indians, the descendants of those who gave the Caribbean its name. Dominica also harbors world-class opportunities for the scuba diver, even offering a chance to snorkel through underwater hot springs.

Dominica is 29 miles long and 16 miles wide, with a population of 72,000.
