Was Dominica a haven to the Pirates of the Caribbean - by Travelrobe

There is no doubt why Gore Verbinski would have chosen Dominica as the back drop for
the movie Pirates of the Caribbean 2 - starring Johnny Depp, Keira Knightly, Orlando
Bloom and Bill Nighy.

Lying halfway between Guadeloupe and Martinique, Dominica\'s appeal has nothing to do
with fabulous beaches what few that exist are paltry or idle days spent under a palm
tree. Rather, its abundant nature invites rigorous hiking to deep emerald pools,
waterfalls and bubbling lakes.

Travelrobe's managing director Mark Felix said in a statement, that \"the first thing
you\'ll notice about Dominica is how intensely green the island is\" and visiting
Dominica on two occasions, his best memory was meeting the Caribs.

Volcanic arches and caves busy with stingrays, barracuda and parrotfish makes for
one of the Caribbean\'s best diving environments, while whales and dolphins often
play off the southern coast, near Champagne, its a unique effervescent bay and those
Pirates new Dominica was not any port in a storm.

Despite all that Dominica has to offer to eco-tourism, it\'s still vastly under
visited, in no small part because it\'s not easy to reach. There are no direct
flights from the US or Europe, and ferries from surrounding islands don\'t stop
daily.

To reach Dominica you must first fly to Antigua, Barbados, Guadeloupe, Martinique,
Puerto Rico, St Lucia or St Martin/St Maarten and catch a connecting flight from
there. Airlines that fly to the island include American Eagle, Air Guadeloupe,
Caribbean Star and LIAT. Flights arrive from Antigua four times daily, and from
Guadeloupe and St Lucia twice daily. Book with www.travelrobe.com

Dominica\'s best hiking trails are found in the magnificent 16,000-acre Morne Trois
Pitons National Park, which spreads over the island\'s southern region and rises to
the 4550ft Morne Trois Pitons, packed with primordial rainforest and sparse elfin
woodland and broken up by volcanic fumeroles and piping hot springs.

The UNESCO World Heritage Site is an astonishing wilderness likely to surpass any
you\'ll find in the Caribbean.
