This 2-hour fun adventure will introduce you to Dominica’s premier snorkel site, Champagne Reef, a local marine eco-system dotted with champagne bubbles, colorful fish, and an assortment of coral and sponge life. Your experience will begin with a transfer to Champagne Beach.  From the beach you will begin your snorkeling tour – much like swimming in a glass of champagne and through a stream of bubbles that rises from a submerged volcanic vent in the sea floor.  See juvenile and adult fish as well as colorful sponge and coral growths. From there you will board your tour bus heading back to your ship.

 

Please note:  Bring your swimsuit, towel, a change of clothing, camera, and sunscreen. This tour is strenuous and you will need to be in good physical condition with no mobility issues.

 

 

 

This is an open-air culinary adventure, where you will spend a day with a local family and learn about Dominican flavors, traditions, and family lifestyles, and prepare and create traditional Caribbean dishes and fruit cocktail blends from local produce. Your day will begin with a bus ride from the wharf to a home nestled in the tropical rainforest. En route, take in the panoramic view of the lush landscape punctuated by the colors of flowering trees, bougainvillea, lilies, and enormous bamboo.  You will be greeted by your hostess, and introduced to the herbs and fresh organic products that will be used.  Today, your choices will be endless – you can prepare a local delicacy, enjoy views of the mountains or the Caribbean Sea, or stroll on the property learning about the fruits and spices. Regardless, you will be guaranteed full servings of fun, rum, and laughter.   Feast on mouth-watering dishes that you have created, served with Caribbean desserts, and fruit and rum punches. On completion of your meal, you will return to the wharf.

Please note:  Due to the limited number of participants allowed and the popularity of this tour, it fills up quickly.

Your tour will begin with a leisurely drive along the Gold Coast, home to many wealthy residents, and will take you to the stunning area of Bathsheba.  This is where the Atlantic surf pounds the coastline and it is a famous spot for international and local surfing competitions.  A walk on the beach is a must. Heading into the hills, you will arrive at St. John’s Church. There are stunning views from the churchyard - a perfect photo opportunity.  The church contains an interesting sculpture depicting the Madonna and Child with the infant St. John. The graveyard contains the tomb of Ferdinand Paleologus, a descendant of the Byzantine Imperial family. The present building was constructed in 1836, and the pulpit is constructed from six different kinds of wood: ebony, locust, Barbados mahogany, manchineel, oak and pine. Through sleepy country villages and sugar cane fields,  you will make your way to Sunbury House dating back to 1650. The house was destroyed by fire in 1995, and was gracefully restored and re-opened in 1996. It possesses one of the country's superior collections of antiques. The cellar houses a unique collection of antique carriages, the largest collection in the Caribbean, as well as many items used in the domestic life of the plantation. It also houses a very old collection of optical machinery and sight testing equipment, some of the first to come to the West Indies including the first lens grinding plant.  Enjoy a light deli-style lunch with a complimentary rum or fruit punch.  A short drive will take you to the airport where you will be met and assisted with your luggage and airline check-in.

Please note: There are about 20 steps to climb at Sunbury House and 10 steps down to the cellar. This tour will end with a drop off at the Grantley Adams International Airport or the Accra Beach Hotel.
