Where
to stay in Dominica
the
SOUTH
|
| Scotts
Head
/ Soufriere Bay |
|
The south of the
island takes
about half an hour to reach
by road from the capital, Roseau.
This area is probably best
known for its unique and varied
diving and snorkelling
opportunities.
The
waters of the Caribbean Sea to the
west are generally calm and clear,
protected
by the island's mountainous
terrain from the prevailing
easterly winds.
The Soufriere/ Scotts Head Bay
Marine Reserve is a submerged
volcano,
with drop-offs, wrecks, a wide
variety of colourful fish and an
abundance
of coral in pristine condition.
'Champagne' - streams of tiny
bubbles
rising
from the ocean floor - betray hot
springs beneath the sea bed. At
the
'toe'
of the island, a trail leads past
an old cannon to the summit of a
rocky
outcrop. To the south, from any
vantage point, the French island
of
Martinique
may be clearly seen accross the
channel. The road inland from
Soufriere
takes you to an open air warm
sulphur springs bathing pool below
the
forest
canopy, from where a nature trail
leads to conical sulphur deposits
on
the hillside.
