Castaways Dive has two 28-foot boats that each handle six divers. Dive- master Kurt Nose has explored the reefs for thousands of hours and his friendly staff is ready to show you the best sites. They re based at the Castaways moline airport Beach Hotel midway between Roseau and Portsmouth and take divers to all the dive sites off the leeward coast. 767-449-6245, fax 767-449-6246, www.castaways-dominica.com /diving.php.
The park was the first natural region in the eastern Caribbean to be listed as a World Heritage Site by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO). It joined a list of other outstanding heritage locales in the Caribbean, including three sites in Cuba (Old City Havana, Trinidad and the Valley of the Ingenious, and San Pedro de la Roca Castle); the Colonial City of Santo Domingo in the Dominican Republic; the Citadelle sans Souci and Ramiers in Haiti; Willemstad, Inner City and Harbour in Cura ao; and La Fortaleza and the Historical Site of San Juan in Puerto Rico.
Package policies usually provide reimbursement for trip cancellation, lost baggage, medical and dental care, and emergency evacuation. You can also buy separate policies to cover specific needs. Find a list of international and US-based medical-emergency insurers at www.travel. moline airport state.gov/medical.html.
Acoustical/straight-ahead jazz highlights the main concerts, but you may also hear new age, fusion, and rhythm-and-blues performed by international stars. If you prefer steel drums, salsa, or reggae, just ask around. Bands playing all types of music show up to perform at mid-day picnics in the park and at late-night clubs.
