In six hours Pepper's Choice threads together Dominica’s volcanic highlights: twin waterfalls, a naturally heated sulphur spa, an emerald pool and a dramatic black sand beach — all timed to avoid the crowds.
More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You step off the van and the island exhales: warm, mineral-rich air with a hint of salt and a faint sulphur tang. Pepper's Choice compresses Dominica's raw geology into six efficient hours — from rainforest walkways that drop into emerald pools to the coarse black sand that grinds quietly beneath your feet. A local guide times the stops so the crowds thin and the light softens, turning falls and sea into immediate photographs and slower memories.

Conservation
Trails and pools are sensitive — stick to marked paths, avoid soaps in natural water, and support local guides who contribute to community conservation efforts.
Reserve your spot on the Pepper's Choice : Waterfalls, Sulphur Spa & Black Sand Beach today and enjoy a trusted, highly rated experience designed to help you make the most of your adventure.
Wear water shoes
Trails and beach sand are uneven and slippery; water shoes protect feet on rocky approaches and in the pools.
Bring a refillable water bottle
Carry at least 1–2 liters — there are quick stops but not guaranteed potable water on every stretch.
Protect electronics from spray and sulphur
Use a small dry bag or ziplock; sulphur vapors and sea spray can corrode lenses and phone ports.
Carry small cash
Local vendors at the beach and small restaurants prefer cash for chair rentals, snacks and tips.
Water shoes
Protect soles on slick rocks, volcanic sand and when entering pools.
Quick-dry swimwear and towel
You’ll want to move between beach, falls and sulphur pools without soggy clothing.
Dry bag or waterproof phone case
Shields electronics from spray, sand and sulphur steam.
Reef-safe sunscreen and hat
Protects skin during beach time and sunny breaks between shaded trails.
