Quick Summary: For the traveler looking for a pristine Caribbean island devoted to authentic ecotourism, Dominica is it. There are no resort chains represented on the island, and it’s not the place to come looking for a vibrant nightlife, but if a serene and beautiful natural island landscape is important, and the must-do list contains plenty of adventurous eco-friendly exploration, then this island in the Lesser Antilles archipelago welcomes you. A short, easy hike takes visitors to the Emerald Pool, a natural pool and waterfall draped in rainforest canopy, while a more rigorous guided hike rewards trekkers with pools at the bottom of jaw-dropping Trafalgar Falls; both are in Morne Trois Pitons National Park. This is only the beginning of 20 remarkable things for eco-travelers to do in Dominica.
