    Wow! This is so beautiful and beyond words to express my feelings. All the same when I viewed it I pictured myself taking a swim in it.
    Those who cannot swim could wallow in it on the side, in the shallow water.
    Sweet Dominica the land of rivers and beauty… Enjoy it all!
    I recognize that God endowed every country its individual beauty. However Is there a country that really surpasses Dominica’s beauty?
    Common folks, let us hear your views about this. I am not referring to sandy beaches. :lol: I am referring to real beauty of sceneries, rivers and lakes such as this picture.

      Why do you want people to be soo dependent on government? You want the government to teach you how to swim? Why can’t private company take this up as a business, if there is not any such business already? I learned to swim in the river by a friend.

      I have been to La Chaudiere several years ago, it is beautiful once you can get down the steep hill. I hope they improve access. I understand it was/is about 65ft. It is amazing for such a small pool to be soo deep. The rocks along the river at that location look like they were molten at one point before they were solidified.

      Great pic!

      Government? Really? ALL any Dominican has to do is go bathe and enjoy the sea and rivers often enough and you will learn to swim sooner or later.
