Summary: Useful for planning
Comment: Not quite as thorough as the Lonely Planet Diving in Puerto Rico, but very helpful for deciding where to start. An added bonus is the short chapter describing inland hikes in Dominica, an island as stunning above water as below. I like the organization or these guides, with excellent icons placed conspicuously to help me skip what I don't need to know.

Summary: Rare Informative Guide
Comment: With so few informative guides available on Dominica, this guide is truly a gem written about a gem of an island. Descriptions of some of the finest and most unusual dives in the Caribbean, including down the crater of a volcano and through hot bubbling springs called "Champagne." The sea life in Dominica is more prolific and untouched than anywhere else in the Caribbean and this guide tells you EVERYTHING you need to know about getting to this offbeat destination, staying there, and seeing the sites both above and below water.


Editorial Reviews:

The Caribbean's "Nature Island," Dominica offers an enticing variety of underwater environments and topside activities. Look for evidence of the island's volcanic origins in the submerged crater and gas vents of Soufriere Bay. Explore pinnacles and walls that support an abundance of tropical fish. On land, hike to a seething volcanic lake or a refreshing waterfall set deep in the rainforest. Dominica attracts divers and travelers seeking a relaxed and unspoiled tropical setting. This book describes 41 of the island's best dive sites, with full-color photos throughout.
