Lush, untamed vegetation defines Dominica, and there's no better way to experience it than on the Waitukubuli National Trail. This trail, the first long-distance walking route in the Caribbean, stretches 184 km from the island's southern tip to its northern edge. Along the way, it traverses waterfalls, boiling lakes, canyons, and much more. Comprising 14 segments —with Segment 3 being the nearest to Roseau — the trail offers a deep dive into Dominica's rich culture and abundant natural beauty. With the island being home to over a thousand species, the sights are diverse and plentiful. For the best experience, consider joining a guided tour and choosing a trail pass that suits your itinerary.

Sea kayak into the heart of Freycinet National Park — the contrasts are stunning. Pink granite mountains, sandy beaches and clear blue water.

Maria Island is a natural wildlife sanctuary and off-shore retreat with historic ruins, sweeping bays, dramatic cliffs and plenty of stories to tell. Located off Tasmania's east coast and accessible only by ferry, Maria Island contains the most intact example of a convict probation station in Australia. Spend the night and piece together Tasmania’s intriguing convict history, encounter very cute wildlife and explore Maria Island’s pristine beaches and ancient forests. The island offers excellent walking and cycling journeys and a limestone quarry at the Fossil Cliffs provides a fascinating close-up look at the many ancient creatures immortalised as fossils in the rocks. The Painted Cliffs at Hopground Beach are beautifully patterned sandstone shaped by the mineral-rich water and wind.

Home to the most important treasures of the Nature Isle, Morne Trois Pitons covers an area of nearly 7000 hectares, and is only a 20-minute drive from Roseau. It is dotted by emblematic sights such as the Emerald Pool, the twin cascades of Trafalgar Falls, and the Titou Gorge, where scenes from the Pirates of the Caribbean were filmed. The park exemplifies the amazing natural diversity of Dominica and is a central area for the island's volcanic activities, the highlight of which is Boiling Lake — a fumarole that heats up to 90 °C.
