Extreme, Dominica Diving - On The Island Of Dominica - I
have come to Coconut Beach in Dominica, the Nature Island, volcanically
spit and shaped in the Lesser Antilles, to spend Christmas holidays with
my spouse Captain Tom. He arrived here on November 20th, delayed by scores
of mudslides that blocked passage on cliffside roads. The island suffered
the only major earthquake in its history - 6.5 on the Richter scale, the
epicenter of the quake was 10 kilometers from the east coast of the island;
the quake occurred at 6 a.m. on Sunday, November 21st. |

Estate Investment In The Caribbean - Dominica, The "Nature" Island
- Half way along the curved necklace of islands
comprising the Windward Islands of the Eastern Caribbean basks a mountainous
rock of 290 sq miles (750 sq km). At longitude 61º 20W, and
latitude 15º 25N, Dominica is a land of steep mountains and cliffs
plummeting straight into the blue Caribbean sea on the western side and
the grey Atlantic on the eastern. Rising at the highest point to
Mt. Diablotin at 4,747 ft. (1,447m), this is a country of raw beauty, rugged
headlands and moody mountains, their peaks often buried in cloud. |
