The
island of the Carib Indians, wild and untouched. Steep shores and narrow
gorges protected the indigenous people from European invaders. The
Caribs still own their own territory in northeast Dominica. The dense
jungle hides dramatic waterfalls and mysterious phenomena, like a
boiling lake. And beyond the coasts lies an undisturbed underwater
paradise bursting with colorful life. Situated between the two European
islands of Martinique and Guadeloupe, the wild and pristine Dominica
draws a contrast that couldn’t be more striking. A totally different
world.
Getting
there: 90 minutes trip on
express ferry from Guadeloupe or Martinique (£ 66 return) or by plane (LIAT,
Caribbean Star) from Barbados or Antigua .
