    Well, I guess the photo proves that CBruce is the Jewel of the East and the real capital of Dca. Go CBruce….from Wakama to Tranto, Winblow to Belfie, Glugloo to Undersnow, Elmsal to Lotbor, Frazier to Jalousie, CBruce reign supreme 8)

    Assertive, NOT Agressive!

    I am. Although I’m not from CB, it’s a nice beach. Everyone needs to go, no matter what the body type is. I’ve been there once. “C’est Domnichen moi yea.”

    @ tiger

    so tiny and fat are the only type of body shape/size/figure?

    there is bottom heavy(pear shape),top heavy, average size…slim built, athletic built,

    some people don’t have a weigh problem but they don’t have a nice body….their legs thin or muscular their bottom flat, they have nice beast. there are a variety of body shapes out there

    Great photo, however, I was born in Castle Bruce and granted, I’ve been gone for awhile, but I don’t remember that beach looking quite like that. As a matter of fact, the water was so rough, that whenever we had picnics there, we swam in the “river mouth.” No one would venture into that water!

    “O” Stress!, you are really stressed out go take a swim and a rest.I am also from this village and you a very negative. The beach do look like this on aoccassions and at the time of this photo it could very well be. During rough seas there will be debris but generally, the beach area is clean. You should be ashamed of saying you are from my village. We welcome everyone to take a swim but like everything else be careful, but surely enjoy. :)

    Dominica is so blessed! Thank you God. Most people don’t know this but the eastern side of DA has so many hidden treasures. Lovely Photo.

    Pictures really create a false illusion I would be happy if our beaches look as great as they are portrayed to look. Not take that the wrong way D/cans cause I am from that area and have visited that beach countless times. Unless the beach received a complete make over within the last 48hrs if not sad to say we which we could boast of white sand beaches and cool calm waters as the picture seem to portray. Imagine mr& miss tourist coming to Dominica on account of this picture??? But its a great shot by the photographer and he or she did their job. I am just judging this photo from the tourist perspective.Have to do that cause Dummy ni cans some of them do not read and comprehend very well.Mr John Fin.farmer and fisher man.

      September 26, 2012

      i mean yes I’m ready..but on the other hand i am afraid of being in the water, lots of people need to be in the water for me to go swimming.

      I’ll just wear a netted shirt over my swimsuit as usual
