Dominica is one of the safest places to travel in the region. There are no poisonous snakes or insects in Dominica. Tap water is safe to drink, but since it is sometimes drawn straight from Dominica's many rivers, it has a tendency to turn brown after heavy rainfall. It's better to drink the bottled water available almost anywhere.
