Saint Mark Parish, Administrative parish in southwestern Dominica
Saint Mark Parish extends over an area of 9.9 square kilometers along the southwestern coast of Dominica with Soufrière as its capital point.
The parish boundaries were established during the British colonial administration of Dominica, making it one of the ten administrative divisions of the island nation.
The communities of Soufrière and Scotts Head maintain traditional fishing practices that sustain local families and supply fresh catches to nearby markets.
Travelers reach Saint Mark Parish via the main coastal road from Roseau, with regular minibus services connecting the settlements throughout the day.
The parish contains the Caribbean's only tombolo at Scotts Head, where a narrow strip of land connects the mainland to a volcanic crater.
