We love a lazy beach day as much as anyone else but we also recognize that there’s so much more to do in our favorite part of the world than just soaking up the sun and sipping a rummy cocktail. So if you’re looking to tear yourself away from the shore and go in search of some eye-opening, calorie-burning or adrenalin-pumping adventure, you can find it in the Caribbean.

It all adds up to this: Dominica is the Caribbean’s best adventure destination.
