The South of Dominica

Discover the Untouched Beauty of Dominica's South: A Paradise for Nature Lovers and Adventurers!

Roseau — Dominica's Capital

On the hills above Roseau, the island's wealthier residents, church leaders, and politicians live and work. 
The view of the capital is breathtaking — locals like to call it the "one million dollar view." Between the villas, you can still see the ruins of old buildings that were left standing as memorials after various hurricanes.

Botanical Garden — Roseau

In the Botanical Garden of Roseau, you can see the impressive tree that had its role in Pirates of the Caribbean and the famous school bus that was crushed by an African Baobab tree during Hurricane David. Fortunately, the bus was empty at the time.

Soufrière Sulphur Springs

Below the spring, there are two small and very cozy "thermal baths" with a beautiful view of the Soufrière Sulphur Springs. One of them is Tia's Bamboo Hot Springs, featuring pools of varying temperatures.
At Tia's Bamboo Cottages, you can rent a room or grab a bite to eat or drink at the restaurant. The rooms have a wonderfully rustic charm. Unfortunately, the website is no longer available, but there is a Facebook page. https://www.facebook.com/566994726708702

Trafalgar Falls — Waterfalls

The Trafalgar Falls can be found near Laudat, high up in the rainforest. The two waterfalls plunge from 60 meters in parallel, forming a pool before merging into the Roseau River and flowing onward. The left stream carries warm water while the right one carries cold water. You can enjoy a wonderful view of this spectacle from a platform nearby. There is also access to the pool, though it is at your own risk (about a 15-minute walk). The pool is surrounded by orange volcanic rock and partially hot spring water.
Admission EC$ 13.50 — US$ 5.00 or the weekly pass to all Dominica Forest, Wildlife & National Parks for EC$ 32.04 — US$ 12.00.

Scott's Head Village

At the very southern tip, you'll find Soufrière Bay and Scott's Head Village, a small fishing village with a historic church and hot springs in the sea. There is a small, cozy hotel and a few bars.

Soufrière Bay & Scott's Head

On the southern peninsula of Scott's Head, you'll find Fort Cachacrou. This is also the starting point for numerous whale watching excursions.
