Dominica’s\u00a0Lakes<\/h1>\n

Hot or Cold? You choose!<\/em><\/h3>\n

Unlike many Caribbean islands, Dominica is\u00a0blessed with several freshwater lakes that provide a wonderful refuge for wildlife as well as fun activities like kayaking, swimming and picnicking. The island’s\u00a0volcanic origins are evident once again as Dominica boasts the second largest Boiling Lake<\/a> in the world – a great destination for an adventurous hike\u00a0with the opportunity to see a unique eco-system.<\/p>\n

Swimming can occur at most beaches, or really anywhere there is access to the sea along the West Coast. However, this is not the case along the Eastern Coast. Due to rip currents and undertows, one must exercise extreme caution and only swim where recommended. \u00a0Find out more…<\/a><\/p>\n
