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. Dominica's dramatic scenery recently attracted Hollywood's attention and the island was location for the filming of the blockbuster Pirates of the Caribbean. Paul Crask is a freelance writer, editor and Bradt author who has visited the island of Dominica since 1993 and is now a permanent resident.
