Day trips to Dominica
Review of General: Dominica by NibblingFudge

Advantages: Beautiful scenery, very friendly people and whales
Disadvantages: Not really a beach island.

We've been twice, both times were via Cruise Ships, and late in the year. These were not big, fancy ships, just average Joe UK ones. Dominica is a beautiful, lush, green, uncommercialised island that the locals should be very proud of. The locals themselves are very friendly and polite. On our first visit we braved the enslaught of taxi drivers that rush to greet Cruise passengers. You just say where you want to visit and they tell you their price. ... Read review

My trip to the Dominican
Review of General: Dominica by martyaber

Advantages: Lovely beaches
Disadvantages: Very hot and sticky weather!

Absolutley amazing holiday! Loved the Dominican Republic! The weather was just amazing apart from the odd rain shower or thunder and lightning. The people cant do enough for you, very friendly and hospitable, learning Spanish would be a good idea if you are thinking of going to the Dominican Republic as a lot of the people speak Spanish! The beaches were just specatcular, the sand very clean and the sea very warm, just like a hot bath! Just watch ... Read review

A beautiful island
Review of General: Dominica by CatBalloo

Advantages: The scenery
Disadvantages: the hotels

I travelled to Dominica because my father comes from there and I wanted to see where he grew up. There are no international airports on the island so you have to travel from another island in the Caribbean. Curiously the airport you arrive in is at the top of the island miles away from where the majority of the islanders live. This seemed like an inconvenience at first, but the journey down from the airport to the capital takes an hour and a half ... Read review
