Based out of Prince Rupert’s Bay, cruisers will be able to enjoy discounted Island Tours, Nightly Social events, a Sponsored Race/Rally back to St. Maarten and of course FREE MOORINGS for the week!

Some of the events include:

– Welcome BBQ and Rum Punch Party

– Hikes and Tours to some famous spots like Indian River, Trafalgar Falls, Middleham Falls, The BOILING Lake, and the Waitukubuli National Train. All are must-see and the tropical rain forests of Dominica never disappoint. Some hikes are more athletic than others, so choose wisely.

Roosevelt Douglas Elementary School – Dominica

Following devastating damage from Hurricane Erica in 2015, this state school is still in dire need of donations and supplies. For a full report read http://www.noonsite.com/Countries/Dominica/dominica-still-needs-help-we-just-did-not-know. [Broken

With the opening of the new term, the school particularly needs permanent markers, adhesive, masking, duct, and scotch tapes, Bristol boards, mini white boards and space-saver stowaway containers. Any other stationary would be welcomed.

Yachts can donate by taking items to PAYS (Portsmouth Dominica) and leaving in the donation boxes set up.
