Syndicate Falls, Waterfall in Dublanc, Dominica.
Syndicate Falls is a waterfall in Dublanc that cascades down through multiple levels over dense rainforest vegetation, collecting in a natural pool below. The water flows in stages through the lush forest setting.
Local residents created pathways through the rainforest to this waterfall in the 1980s, making it accessible to visitors for the first time. Since then it has become a regular destination for those exploring the area.
Local guides gather here to share knowledge about the rainforest plants and wildlife that surround the waterfall. Visitors often learn about the bird species and vegetation that thrive in this part of the forest.
The path to the waterfall involves several river crossings and takes about 25 minutes from the parking area along marked forest trails. Sturdy footwear is helpful since the forest ground can be wet and uneven.
The water temperature stays around 15 degrees Celsius year-round, making it the coldest natural swimming spot in northern Dominica. This constant cold stems from the waterfall's height and the rainforest setting.
