Emerald Pool most commonly refers to the famous natural waterfall basin located in the UNESCO-listed Morne Trois Pitons National Park in Dominica. Another popular destination by the same name is the turquoise mineral
Emerald Pool (Dominica, Caribbean)
Tucked deep within the Caribbean island’s lush rainforest, this is one of Dominica’s most accessible and iconic natural wonders.
- The Waterfall: A beautiful 13-meter (approx. 40 ft) waterfall drops into a sparkling, dark-green pool.
- The Hike: A very brief, beginner-friendly 15-minute nature trail (roughly 0.4 miles) leads to the falls, surrounded by towering trees and exotic flora.
- Swimming: The water is notoriously cool and refreshing. It’s an incredibly popular stop, so visiting early in the morning is highly recommended to avoid cruise ship crowds.
