Calibishie

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Calibishie is a town in Dominica. It is located on the north coast of the island, immediately to the east of the village of Hampstead. The Calibishie Coast Travel Area, is thought by many to be the most scenic and unspoiled region of Dominica. Stretching from the rugged mountains of Pennville, through the picturesque fishing village of Calibishie to the crashing surf of the Marigot beaches, the Calibishie Coast is one of the few areas in the world where you can travel from the seashore to rain forest in little more than a mile.

Experience palm-fringed beaches, freshwater rivers with secluded bathing pools, tumbling waterfalls and the soft wonder of the rain forest with its exotic birds and lush vegetation, all in a days' walk.

Adventures abound on the Calibishie Coast. Hike deep into our rain forest wilderness to catch a glimpse of the colourful Jaco parrot. Take a spin on a mountain bike or take to the sea for great snorkeling and world-class scuba diving.

A wide variety of accommodation is available along the coast, from simple guesthouses to cliff side cottages overlooking the sea to a private villa perched on a mountainside.

The small villages of the Calibishie Coast, with their strong sense of community, will welcome you with open arms. Our friendly people willingly share their knowledge and love of this unique and wonderful area. Come, experience the rich culture and untamed beauty of our corner of Dominica.
