Spend a full day making the most of Dominica's natural wonders. Begin with snorkeling at Champagne Reef, where underwater volcanic vents emit continuous streams of tiny bubbles from the seabed, much like a glass of champagne. Next, drive through the island's lush rainforest to Morne Trois Pitons National Park. Together with your guide, you'll trek on uneven terrain to the Emerald Pool, where you may cool off with a dip and admire the breathtaking tropical rainforest. After a complimentary buffet lunch, you'll continue to Trafalgar Falls, where you'll marvel at the twin falls cascading into a deep pool. Finally, you'll journey to Titou Gorge, located some 2,000 feet above sea level. Here, you may enjoy a swim or a massage from the hot water stream that empties into cool, refreshing waters. A complimentary beverage is yours to enjoy before your return drive back to the pier.

Special Notes:

Time spent in transportation is approximately 3 hours en route to the venues. The minimum age required to participate is 12 years old. Snorkeling equipment including snorkel vest are provided and must be worn. This active excursion is suitable only for guests in good physical condition. The rustic paths at the Emerald Pool are steep and may be slippery. To reach the pool itself requires negotiating many steep steps and the walk takes about 20 minutes. Jumping from the falls is not permitted. Wear comfortable clothes and sturdy walking shoes or hiking boots. Wear a swimsuit under your clothes and bring a towel and adequate sun protection. Water shoes are recommended. An alternate snorkel site may be used if sea or weather conditions are unfavorable. Tour sequence may vary. Once participants join their tour, they will be required to complete a liability waiver.
