Spend your morning snorkeling or scuba diving on pristine and uncrowded reefs, and your afternoons either hiking in rainforests, whale and dolphin watching, deep sea fishing, or kayaking along an uninhabited coastline. Nestled at the edge of a cliff overlooking the Caribbean Sea, Fort Young is cradled in the beauty of Dominica s mountainous landscapes. It lies within the walls of a fort built in 1770, on the southern edge of Roseau. Dominica is known for macro-creatures, including frogfish, seahorses, crinoids, batfish and gurnards.
Some sites are over volcanically vented hot springs that attract squadrons of squid.
Dives are usually scheduled in the morning to leave afternoons free to explore topside attractions and catch the sunset over dinner. Hiking and whale watching are two other attractions. The island has an abundance of virgin oceanic-rainforest throughout its mountainous, volcanically created landscape. Others come to Dominica for the flora and fauna, or rare birds spotted on these hikes. Dolphins and Sperm Whales reside in Dominica s waters and are often seen on afternoon boat excursions.
