Rosalie Forest / 3 Rivers Eco Lodge, Dominica : At one with nature, secluded and safe in the jungle; A unique eco vacation experience : Dominica adventure awaits you!


ACTIVITIES

Dominica's waters host numerous whale populations, and so whale watching can be a truly exciting excursion.

Wherever you go, music fills your ears. If the natural music of the birds and the animals is not enough, then the musical vibes of the people will satisfy your needs. On the buses and in the streets a variety of music can be heard : calypso, reggae and local folk music. Most villages have a few of their own bands, and they can be heard in many of the local village bars. Each Dominica village also has its own 'feast' which is a music and dance extravaganza. Carnival time is at the end of January / beginning of February.

So far, 22 different species of whales and dolphins have been identified in the Dominica's waters, including a 59 foot sperm whale and some pretty large migratory singing humpbacked whales, which have two blowholes on the top of their heads forming a balloon-shaped spout. You may get lucky and see both on the same day.

Whale watching trips cost US$57.50, including tax for adults and half that for children under the age of twelve. This price includes refreshments and you are sure to have a great day out at sea. Obviously, there can be no guarantee of a sighting, but the whale watching tour operators reckon you have a 90% chance of success.
