Discover the Unspoiled Beauty of Dominica

Dominica, often hailed as one of the world’s last unspoiled islands, beckons nature enthusiasts. Its volcanic nature, with the highest volcanic density on the planet, sets the stage for unique experiences. With 365 rivers, spectacular waterfalls, and secluded beaches, Dominica offers a perfect blend of tranquility and adventure.

Diving into Paradise

Ranked among the top 10 diving destinations globally, Dominica’s underwater world is a marvel. Fort Young Hotel stands as the ideal hub for diving enthusiasts. The island’s best shore diving experience, right in front of the hotel, promises encounters with sunken Spanish cannons, a luxury yacht shipwreck, and thriving marine life around soap factory industrial equipment.

Renewed Elegance at Fort Young

Recent renovations, completed last year with an $18 million investment, have elevated Fort Young to new heights. The Compass Fitness Center, Marquis Bar & Lounge, Museum Café, The Old Oven Art Gallery, The Rum & Wine Cellar, and The Work & Play Hub are among the additions, each offering a unique experience within the historical fort walls.
