an island holiday awaits...
Dominica has an interesting number of natural spots to keep any traveller entertained over a visit and although it's not known for its beaches as much as other Caribbean islands it still has the odd picturesque secluded spot.
On this island you can swim at a beach with constant bubbles of hot water rising from the ocean's floor due to volcanic activity, tour through the rainforest and work your way through waterfalls, rivers and even experience rock climbing and river tubing or if you feel like the ultimate adventure you can hike to the 'Boiling Lake' which is said to be the worlds 2nd largest.
Pirates of the Caribbean was filmed here which says much for the islands adventurous side.
