Today's transformative experience is all about Dominica as a thrilling playground for aquatic adventurers. The island's rugged mountainous landscape boasts an abundance of natural wonders -- rivers, waterfalls, lakes and valleys -- all ripe for exploring.
Begin your day with a panoramic drive into the interior of the island. Leave the coach for an exhilarating seven-minute nature trail hike through the rainforest, where you will encounter Trafalgar Falls. This site encompasses two marvelous waterfalls; the locals have dubbed them the Mother Falls and Father Falls. They cascade down verdant cliffs surrounded by tropical foliage -- a slice of raw power among a thousand shades of green.
The Layou River is Dominica's longest waterway. At a river-tubing launch site, listen to a safety briefing, put on a life vest, grab a modified inner tube, and hop into the river. Float down, gently spinning and swirling in the current, taking in the changing scenery at every turn. What could possibly be more relaxing?
Enjoy a popular Dominican pastime -- river bathing in clear, freshwater rivers winding through lush rain forests. This serene and rejuvenating experience is a cooling retreat and a tranquil escape.
Back on land, refreshments are served, including rum punch and fresh fruit .
Please note: Minimum age is 8 years. Tour operates weather, rainfall and river conditions permitting. Wear your swimsuit under your clothing; bring a towel, reef-safe/biodegradable sunscreen, light clothing to act as a full cover-up for further protection from the sun, and a hat. The route is winding. Guests who are prone to motion sickness should consider this before booking and/or take appropriate medication.
