Product Description
Tiny but perfectly-formed Dominica is one of the most naturally dramatic islands of the Lesser Antilles. This beautiful island with its verdant mountains, lush valleys and dense tropical rainforests is still off the mass-tourism trail. However, cruise ships, hikers, scuba divers and nature-lovers are starting to discover this gorgeous 'Nature Island of the Caribbean'. This second edition offers practical information on the growing health and wellness holidays, weddings and yachting parties as well as extended coverage of the rich cultural heritage. There is a new chapter on the highly popular Waitukubuli National Trail.The author is resident in the country so has detailed insider knowledge.

Let me say that I'm partial to Bradt guides. If there is one, I won't go without it. They are about real travel, culture and nature, and not about shoestrings and fancy pictures. Paul Crask lives on the island and it shows. The guidebook is hike-oriented, which is as well. That's what most travelers will want to do if they choose to travel to Dominica. Hike descriptions are juicy and tempting, making You want to go. In the next edition I would like to read more about whale watching, a major attraction which is strangely almost overlooked. Creole Music Festival and the music scene receives the cursory treatment as well, oddly, since we are talking about a Caribbean island here. With these small reservations, the guide is about as good as guide books get.

I've read this wonderful book and it's absolutely excellent...!!! The writing so impeccable, in a language which I can understand & it's not boring while you reading. The author explains about everything you need to know about Dominica & more so. He gives such excellent advice & tips. The way he write it's like he really cares about you. I like the little bits & pieces about the history of Dominica.
I have never hiked before in my life. So when I intend to visit Dominica next year some time, I will be doing a few beginners hike to see the fantastic views of the island. This book has answered a 101 idiot questions I had floating around in my head & will be my bible during my trip to Dominica.
Everytime I have been abroad on holiday in the past, I had always purchased a copy of a Travel Guide of the country I am visiting, so I got a good idea what I'm comparing this book to. Nothing else compares IMHO...
Thank you Paul on a brilliant job. I hope to read many more Travel Guides by you in the future... (No. 1 Fan)

You'll do just as well without it.
I got this book mainly as a guide to hiking Dominica. Inside I found descriptions of all the trails I'd seen online, which is helpful, but not much more than I'd expect from a good... Read more
