Traveling to Dominica with Kids: Waterfalls, Canyoning, and One Wild Drive

What’s it really like traveling to Dominica with kids as a single mom? In this episode of Adventure Is Everywhere, Kim shares a spring break trip to Dominica filled with rainforest hikes, waterfall swimming, canyoning adventures, snorkeling, and some truly unforgettable driving.

From chasing waterfalls and rappelling through canyons to navigating steep mountain roads, wandering livestock, and moments that felt equal parts terrifying and hilarious, this family trip to Dominica turned out to be less about the itinerary—and more about the unplanned moments that became lasting memories.

This episode explores family adventure travel, visiting Dominica beyond the resorts, and why the moments that feel inconvenient or chaotic at the time often end up being the ones we remember most. If you’ve ever wondered whether Dominica is a good destination for families—or how to find adventure without needing a perfect plan—this story is for you.

Adventure isn’t always the activity you booked. Sometimes, it’s the drive.
