As one of the smaller economies in the Caribbean, Dominica has recognized tourism as a key driver for future growth. Over the past decade, the government has invested heavily in developing the necessary infrastructure like hotels, resorts, and attractions to transform Dominica into a premier ecotourism destination. These efforts are paying off, with visitor numbers nearly tripling between 2021 and 2022 according to official statistics.
Dominica’s pristine rainforests, waterfalls, hot springs, hiking trails and diving spots offer a unique experience for nature-loving tourists. The island also markets its unspoiled beaches and opportunities to experience the local Kalinago culture. With much of Dominica still undeveloped, the tourism industry remains in its infancy compared to other Caribbean islands but shows strong potential for continued expansion.
As a consulting firm with extensive experience in sustainable tourism planning, Ruskin Felix Consulting is well-positioned to support Dominica’s growing industry. RFC could work with local stakeholders and international partners to develop strategies around destination management, community-based initiatives, and new product development. Our expertise in areas like infrastructure assessment, marketing and promotion, and developing linkages with other sectors would strengthen Dominica’s tourism organizational framework.
With careful guidance, Dominica’s tourism industry can maximize economic and social benefits while protecting environmental and cultural assets integral to the island’s brand. RFC aims to leverage our skills and networks to ensure tourism fulfils its potential as a leading income generator and job creator. This will help build a more resilient and prosperous future for Dominica.
