Boiling Lake

Said to be the second largest in the world, this hot springs lake is a caldron of gray-blue water at a temperature ranging from 180 to 197 degrees Fahrenheit; a full-day rigorous hike with a guide is needed to visit this awesome sight.

This was the best. He is the BEST! We considered ourselves intermediate hikers.. this hike was hard, and satisfying. Nigel made it totally worth it. He was consistently upbeat, encouraging (we needed it) and overall a wonderful and friendly person with a heart of gold. At one point when I wanted to give up he was encouraging and keep me going. He knew exactly what he was doing, was full of information and facts about the local wildlife and foliage, had amazing stories to keep us entertained and answered all our questions! We had a fantastic time hunting the mysterious Agouti, stopping at the streams for a dip, eating eggs cooked in the Valley of Desolation and conversation with Nigel where he thought us all about the multipurpose use of materials you find on the way! Our tour consisted of us and another couple. Not only did he do well with mixing our levels of ability, he is great at interacting with all and keeping our conversation going! We have already talked about returning and when we do we will be hiring Nigel again for all of our guide needs! Our trip would not have been the same without him making it as memorable as he did! Thanks Nigel!

Trafalgar Falls

Two spectacular waterfalls, Mother and Father, which you can climb around and have their rainbow encircle you.

We found the tours to Trafalgar falls a bit expensive and as we didn't have cars, we managed to get a public bus up to Trafalgar village (departs from Roseau in front of the Labour house every day btw 7-19) The fare is 5EC/person. From there it's an easy walk up with a little elevation to the falls. They only take cash for entrance ticket. The staff is amazingly friendly and helpful. Try to visit on non-cruise day as otherwise it will be jammed with tour buses from the cruise.

Emerald Pool Nature Trail

Waters from the 50-foot Emerald Falls plunge into this swirling, fern-filled basin, giving hikers a cool respite after a leisurely hike to this sight.

We used Shoretrips on a recent Royal Caribbean Cruise. The tour was called: TRAFALGAR FALLS AND EMERALD POOL. We had a group of 14 so we got a private shuttle with a driver named Clem. He was outstanding!! I am not sure of the actual tour company, but if you ever to Dominica, try to look this up and Shoretrips and ask for Clem. Dominica is a very very beautiful country.

Valley of Desolation

A moss and lichen covered valley littered with brightly-colored hot springs, boiling mud and mini-geysers.

Reviewed By JemK_ima - Beau Bassin - Rose Hill, null

Even if you do not make it to the boiling lake, hiking till there is a sight in itself! A landscape filled with a myriad of colors, bluish streams, fuming red, yellow and white rocks, boiling black water...tread with caution of course!

Freshwater Lake

You’ll need to hike up to this lake, the largest in the island, but the trek won’t be lonely: hundreds of hummingbirds will keep you humming along.
