The Commonwealth of Dominica is a beautiful island paradise set in the Caribbean Sea. Discovered by Christopher Columbus on a Sunday in 1493, he named the island Dominica, meaning Sunday in Latin. With lush green forests, picturesque waterfalls, miles of hiking trails, volcanic mountains, thermal springs, and an endless list of fun activities, every day is a Sunday in Dominica. Such is the natural unspoiled beauty of the island that it has been nicknamed the Nature Isle of the Caribbean.
