Dominica: Kalinago Territory and Scott’s Head

Submitted by Victoria Blankenship on the 2020 winter session program in Dominica sponsored by the Department of Geography…

This week we went to the Kalinago Territory to see the native people of Dominica. We learned about how they were put on a reservation and how they used to live. They have a modern lifestyle now much different than the one they used to live. We also went on a hike to the Emerald Pool and swam in it. We also visited Scott’s Head which was a beautiful beach. We snorkeled and saw so many fish. We  could walk up this trail to the top of Scott’s Head and see the whole side of the island.
