Dominica is renowned as a premier whale watching destination for enthusiasts worldwide. Beneath the surface of the Caribbean, deep underwater canyons create an ideal habitat for an array of cetacean species. The star of the show is without a doubt the sperm whale, which is often found in close proximity to the shore, and other delightful companions such as bottlenose and spotted dolphins too adorn the seascape. Boat trips usually last around three hours and include not only insightful commentary but also a range of complimentary services on board.

Also known as SHARC, this is more than just a public pool. It features both an indoor and outdoor pool, water slides, a hot tub, a lazy river, a toddler splash and play area, basketball and bocce ball courts, a cafe, playground and an event space.

The best views of Dubrovnik and the surrounding area are, without doubt, experienced from the top of the Srd Hill. The Dubrovnik Cable Car was built back in 1969 and was eagerly used by millions of visitors who wanted to enjoy the most stunning panoramic views. On a clear day, you can see up to 60 km, 37 miles. For this reason, the neighbouring Imperial Fortress was strategically built on this privileged spot, back in the early 19th century. It is also possible to get there by car or walking. No matter how you get there, a fantastic view is your reward.

The Maritime Museum is located on the First and Second Floors of Fort St John’s. The exhibits on the First Floor give an overview of the development of Dubrovnik maritime trade and shipbuilding from its very start to the fall of the Dubrovnik Republic. The exhibits on the Second Floor show the resurgence of maritime trade in Dubrovnik and on the Pelješac Peninsula during the 19th century, as well as the strength of Dubrovnik steamships up until World War II and afterwards.
