In this traditional style guesthouse, you instantly feel like a member of the family. Casual, relaxed and as comfortable as your favorite pair of slippers, Castle Comfort rests directly on the edge of the ocean with the green hills of Dominica sitting at her back. With only 15 rooms, Castle Comfort is ideal for individuals, couples or small groups desiring a quiet, get away from it all lifestyle. We bring you peace and serenity... with some great diving thrown in as well. Begin the morning watching rainbows sprout from the sea with a cup of rich Dominican coffee in your hand. Relax in our hot tub in the evening, rum punch in hand, as the red sun slips slowly into the water. Enjoy dining family-style in the company of fellow travelers, divers and explorers. AMENITIES: Pool Hot tub with decking Oceanview grill/ bar sun deck terrace ACTIVITIES: In addition to our diving and whale-watching activities, we can arrange guided tours and hiking excursions to any site in Dominica, from Ti-Tou Gorge to the Boiling Lake to breathtaking waterfalls set deep in the rainforest. With a staff of PADI and NAUI trained instructors and divemasters, four superb dedicated dive boats and an intimate knowledge of the reefs and waters surrounding the island, Dive Dominica offers the friendliest and the most professional dive services found in the southeast Caribbean. The reefs of Dominica hold surprises for even the most seasoned diver. Frogfish, Seahorses, Flying Gurnards, Snake Eels - these rare creatures become almost daily encounters. Mix this with seamounts, pinnacles, vertical walls and coral reefs every bit as lush and exciting as any on the planet. The result? Some of the very finest diving you will ever experience. This is the final frontier of Caribbean diving, an underwater realm unsullied and unaltered - the real Caribbean! Dominica is blessed with an abundance of both resident and visiting cetaceans - pods of Spinner and Spotted Dolphins, Pilot Whales, Sperm Whales, False Orcas and at least a dozen other species. Whales and Dolphins are sighted so frequently in these waters that Dominica is widely considered to be one of the best areas in the Caribbean for encounters with these fascinating creatures. Join us on our whale-watching excursions. Watch as they break the surface of the water. Listen to the rhythmic sounds of their clicking communication as you relax on our fast, hydrophone-equipped catamarans. Take time out from our water activities to explore the serene beauty of our rainforest cloaked hills. The interior of Dominica holds the most intact oceanic rainforest found in the hemisphere. Hike to towering waterfalls, soak in volcanic hot springs, luxuriate in the gentle embrace of nature. This is life as it was meant to be lived!
