Roseau & Dominica a Roseau

Dominica is an island in the Lesser Antilles nestled between Guadeloupe and Martinique. Home first to the Arawak and then to the Kalinago people, who are still present today with a decisive impact on culture, the island had a long history of rule by Europeans, particularly the French and the English, before it gained independence in 1978. The island of 750 square kilometres is covered in clouds of mist and lush greenery. Volcanic activity is to this day omnipresent here, creating natural curiosities such as the world's second largest hot spring — the Boiling Lake — and its underwater sister — the bubbly Champagne Reef. Mighty mountains like Morne Diablotins rise above a vibrant world of flora and fauna, with plenty of endemic and otherwise rare species. As a showpiece of sustainable tourism, Dominica is committed to keeping the island's nature pristine. The Caribbean's first long-distance hiking trail weaves its way across the island, reflecting the widespread appreciation for nature. This love for the outdoors is so evident that even tourists arriving in urban areas like Roseau can easily get a taste of the Nature Isle.
