Places I Remember with Lea Lane

Send us a Text Message.

Beautiful Dominica has been named the top island in the Caribbean, Bermuda, and the Bahamas for 2022 in Travel + Leisure World’s Best Awards. Yet most travelers have yet to discover it.
Dominicans Colin Piper and Aziz Roberts share Dominica's geography and history, and sights/sites to experience -- from "boiling lakes" and "champagne snorkeling" to trails by waterfalls, river rafting, black and silver beaches, hot springs, and whale watching. We also discuss cultural festivals, luxury and eco-friendly hotels, and local foods and drinks.
And of course, we end with special memories of this special island nation.
