I was taken by bus to this lookout. Great view of the city of Roseau. Next time I would like to walk up the hill from the botanical gardens to here.

It' s a nice place with typical stores. A beautiful place for the sunset (west-exposed) , Water warm and quiet but not clean 'cause the sand is dark but I could see a wonderful lion fish. Easily linked to St Joseph beach for a relaxing walk.
5. St. George's Anglican Church

We stopped back to pick up a few fruits to munch on before returning to our cruise, as it was near the dock. Delicious!

The forty acres of garden include orchid trees, bottle palms, the Carib Wood tree and an unidentifiable no-name tree.

The grounds of the Botanic Garden are fairly small but if you consider the fact that they are surrounded by the natural terrain limitations in Dominica on hand and then on the other enclosed by the Roseau overcrowded streets and both residential and commercial buildings this is almost like a little paradise garden in the area! I admit there is not that much to see when it comes to variety and area but the few old trees in certain spots are absolutely beautiful and stunning; we came here to see the "famous" Baobab tree that "fell asleep" on the yellow bus but left the place being more amazed (with first still being a treat!) by the huge tree right across from it - look at the size and proportions to humans around it! TIP: if you drove here and have extra time and comfy shoes do yourself a favor and take a hike to Morne Bruce - it's much more rewarding to hike it than to drive up the hill (despite the direct parking vista point being nicer than the adjacent one that you will see first when hiking)
