DOMINICA
Dominica surges from the sea with soaring peaks
that seem to be courting the heavens. Virgin flora covers
these dramatic mountains, creating swaths of verdant landscapes.
The residue of the fiery forces that created the island
thousands of years ago, as part of the Caribbean Ring
of Fire, bellows in several hot springs, valleys of steaming
earth, and a boiling lake which is the second largest
in the world. Along with geothermal wonders come natural
coolants: hundreds of pristine rivers and streams web
the island's lush terrain. Pure rainwater sets brooks
and cascades into motion by rushing down picturesque cliffs.
Dominica's natural wonders and rich cultural heritage
make it an exceptional ecotourism destination. Site

TORTOLA
Powdery white-sand beaches, lush green mountains,
and a sheltered yacht-filled harbor characterize the island
of Tortola, where the past of the West Indies meets the
present of the BVI. The largest island in the chain, Tortola
offers a variety of exciting possibilities. Site

SAMANA
The town of Samana is located on the southern
side of the peninsula along Samana Bay. It's a popular
base for whale watching excursions or day trips to Cayo
Levantado, both of which leave from the town's port. Samana's
Malecon, or beachfront strip, is the center of activity
and features outdoor cafes and small shops. Site
