The Independent features the island of Dominica in the Caribbean as a paradise found for travelers looking for the ultimate adventurous experience complete with untouched natural beauty including hikes, hot springs, and underwater experiences.

“No international airport, no hotel chains or white sand beaches, sparse roads, hardly any street lights… I find the island of Dominica blissfully free of urban sprawl. What the place nicknamed the Caribbean’s “nature island” does have in abundance is wilderness. A thickly rainforested, mountainous interior, to be exact, fringed by beaches of black and silver volcanic sand.”
