Dominica

The nature island: a boiling lake, rainforest waterfalls, hot springs and sperm whales offshore.

Dominica has hardly any white beaches and makes up for it with the wildest nature in the Caribbean: the Waitukubuli trail crosses the whole island, a day hike leads to a lake that boils in a volcanic crater, and rainforest waterfalls and hot springs are everywhere. Sperm whales live off the west coast all year, and at Champagne Reef bubbles rise from the volcanic seabed.
