...the waters very hot, but the views are spectacular.
There are 365 rivers. Each one unique and very beautiful.
If you like hiking, then Dominica has the best treks. You have Morne Anglais, a huge mountain standing tall at 3,683 feet; Jaco Flats, where you are able to go into the lake for a swim.
RoseauRoseau is the capital city. There you can visit the Roseau Museum, a botanical garden and a few markets. If you trek upto the aviary, you're able to the whole view of Roseau, and the blue ocean in the background.
You can also enjoy festivals, carnival and village feasts.
The best time to visit, is between January and June because this is the dry season.
The currency is the eastern Caribbean Dollar.
The food is delicous, mostly seafood and chicken, and creole style cooking. So, most of it's mixed with bananas and coconuts. One thing to try...

Advantages: Unforgettable Experience Disadvantages: Very Expensive
...On November 3rd, 1978 Dominica gained its independence from Great Britain and became an independent republic within the Commonwealth.

Advantages: Maybe The Best Beaches in the World Disadvantages: NONE
...for them to pick you up at a certain time (believe me they wont let you down) In fact a group of us were at a beach and when it started raining the taxi actually came back to get us. I really thought that was excellent service.
Caribbean Beaches
St Thomas
Magens Bay. This is a most fantastic beach it is listed as one of the ten most beautiful beaches in the world; it is located at the end of a tree-shaded drive on the north shore. A taxi will cost about $6 per person and there is a $3 admission (Oct 2002) it is very popular so it does get busy!
Morning Star is my personal favourite. It is quite a small beach, but doesn't seem to get to busy, its just east off havensight shopping area, next to the Frenchman's reef resort. It has an open bar and a restaurant, volleyball and windsurfing equipment. Don't let that put you off though; when I first...

My husband has always had a strong interest in birds and we are very keen to attract them to the garden. We also like, when possible to visit various nature reserves in the UK and also sometimes abroad. The Collins Bird Guide has always been an essential more
