Where to go
|

|
Most
hikers
head directly to Dominica's
Morne Trois Pitons National Park
, the expansive rainforest that covers most of the island's southern reaches. Its centrepiece,
Boiling Lake
, requires a full-day trek, but hitting the park's numerous waterfalls, like
Emerald Pool
, is easily achieved, even by novice hikers.
Divers
, in contrast, head to the waterfront south of Roseau where several outfits run trips to impressive underwater craters around
Scotts Head
and the northern
Cabrits National Park
's drop-offs.
A somewhat livelier pace is felt in the island capital,
Roseau
, which can be also be a good base camp for island activities, as most guesthouses here also organize rainforest treks and sea dives. It's also the only place with any real
nightlife
to speak of. Other useful information
