Kalinago - Caribbean Village, Native settlement in Saint David Parish, Dominica.

The Kalinago Territory extends across 3,700 acres of land along the eastern coast, featuring traditional settlements and natural landscapes with river valleys.

The British colonial authorities established this territory in 1903, expanding it from the original 232 acres granted to the Kalinago people in 1763.

The Kalinago maintain their ancestral practices through basket weaving, canoe building, and pottery making, using materials sourced from the surrounding environment.

The territory welcomes visitors from Monday through Saturday between 9:00 and 16:00, and on Sundays from 10:00 to 16:00.

The territory represents the largest settlement of Indigenous people in the Caribbean, with approximately 3,000 residents maintaining their traditional way of life.
