One of Dominica’s most visited attractions, Emerald Pool, is a small 40-foot waterfall that cascades into a pool that appears green in the leafy, filtered sunlight. Located in the heart of the island, at the northern edge of Morne Trois Pitons National Park, Emerald Pool has become rather iconic as a visual representation of Dominica.

Whether you’re planning an extended stay or a day cruise trip, Emerald Pool is not to be missed when traveling to Dominica. It is one of the natural attractions of Waitukubuli National Trail Segment 5—the Maroon Trail. Emerald Pool is surrounded by lush vegetation and provides a cool reprieve for swimmers and waders on hot days. Just ten minutes off the interior of Roseau-Castle Bruce Road, it’s the most accessible waterfall in the UNESCO World Heritage Site, and its color and drama have served as the backdrop of several movies as well as weddings.

Don’t miss your chance to experience the pleasures that Emerald Pool has offered its guests for thousands of years.
