Dominica

Adventurous by Nature! Unexpected wonders await at a modern retreat where the untamed heart of the Caribbean is within reach. Ocean Oasis Hotel offers sustainably minded lodgings within a capital city setting, a sanctuary amidst Roseau’s downtown bustle, and the perfect place to plot tropical adventures — from hiking through rainforests to communing with whales year-round. Dominica is a destination for purpose-driven travelers curious about the natural world. Our mountainous landscape is home to nine active volcanoes, a lush rainforest that covers two-thirds of the land, and the only sea where whales live year-round. It’s where the Kalinagos still live, where the Caribbean is undisturbed and reimagined. DIVING: Discover the underwater world steps from shore with Ocean Oasis Dive Shop at the Ocean Oasis Hotel. With rugged pinnacles, dramatic drop-offs and abyss depths, Dominica’s waters are a paradise for divers and water adventurers. The island has long been a treasured top 5 dive destination in the world and Fort Young, with its full-service dive center and landmark location along the shores of the Caribbean Sea, has played host to dive travelers from around the world for more than a decade.
