    The Fresh Water Lake is really a man-made Dam which is supplying water to the turbines at the Padu Power Station.

      “The Lake was originally of volcanic origin but construction of a dam some years ago as part of the hydo-electric scheme increased the size of the lake.” – http://www.avirtualdominica.com/freshwaterlake.cfm

      The volcanic crater exists which is the original space of the lake but the water level most likely increased significantly because of the dam. Haha I bet some of the people giving thumbs down have never even been to the lake.
