Dominica, the Nature Island
Commonly known as The Nature Island, Dominica is one of the best-kept secrets of the Caribbean.
The island is a verdant tapestry of lush rainforests, towering mountains, rushing rivers, welcoming waterfalls, and volcanic wonders—everything you need to rejuvenate your mind and body.
Sitting halfway along the Eastern Caribbean archipelago, Dominica island country is located just a few miles from Martinique to the south and Guadeloupe to the north. Stretching 751 km² (290 square miles), the island boasts 148 km (91 miles) of coastal line.
Dominica’s official name is the Commonwealth of Dominica, which is mostly referenced in official communications and to distinguish the island from the Dominican Republic, its northerly Caribbean sister.
