🇩🇲 HAVE YOU EVER THOUGHT ABOUT DOMINICA? 🇩🇲

If you love discovering somewhere a little bit different, this one is definitely worth a look. 💙

Dominica is one of the Caribbean’s real hidden gems, wonderfully green, unspoilt and perfect if your idea of a Caribbean holiday is about more than simply lying on a beach.

Think tropical rainforest, waterfalls, natural hot springs, mountains and an incredible 365 rivers! 🌿

There are some fabulous walking trails through the rainforest, including the UNESCO-listed Morne Trois Pitons National Park, while out at sea you could be spotting whales, dolphins and turtles. 🐋🐬🐢

And for divers, the underwater world around Dominica is pretty special too.

✨ I’ve found a lovely twin-centre way to experience the island, staying in TWO very different properties:

🩵 5 nights at Rosalie Bay Eco Resort & Spa – Bed & Breakfast
🩵 5 nights at Jungle Bay – Bed & Breakfast

📅 10 nights from 20th January 2027
✈️ Flying from London Gatwick via Barbados
🧳 Luggage included
🚗 Transfers included
✨ No resort fees

💷 From £2,362 per person
Based on 2 adults sharing

I think this would be perfect for someone who has perhaps "done" the more traditional Caribbean islands and fancies discovering somewhere completely different.

If Dominica has never been on your radar before… maybe it should be! 🇩🇲💙

Drop me a message if you'd like me to take a look at this for you or tailor something around your own dates.

Australia's East Coast: What Each Season Really Offers 🦘
There’s no single ‘best’ time to visit Australia’s East Coast – because the experience changes quite a bit depending on the season (and how far north you go!).
Here’s a quick guide to what each season brings 👇
☀️ Summer (Dec–Feb)
This is classic Australian summer along the NSW coast – think Sydney in the sunshine, beach days, coastal road trips and long, warm evenings. Further north, Brisbane and the Gold Coast are hot and humid, with tropical-style summer storms. In Tropical North Queensland, it’s wet season, bringing higher humidity, tropical downpours and lush rainforest scenery.
🍂 Autumn (Mar–May)
A lovely time to travel the East Coast as the intensity of summer starts to ease. Sydney and the NSW coast are still pleasantly warm, while Brisbane and the Gold Coast become less humid as the season progresses. Further north, Tropical North Queensland begins transitioning towards its drier months – making late autumn a particularly nice time to explore.
❄️ Winter (Jun–Aug)
Winter is when heading north really pays off. Brisbane and the Gold Coast enjoy mild days and generally drier conditions, while Tropical North Queensland is warm, dry and much less humid – ideal for combining Cairns, the Great Barrier Reef and the rainforest. It’s also humpback season, as whales migrate north along Australia’s East Coast 🐋
🌸 Spring (Sep–Nov)
Spring brings warmer days back to Sydney and the NSW coast, while Queensland starts heating up again as summer approaches. It’s also a brilliant time for whale watching in NSW, with humpbacks making their southbound journey – and mothers and calves can be spotted travelling together along the coast 🐋
The key thing to remember? Australia’s East Coast doesn’t have one perfect season. Summer in Sydney can offer a completely different experience to summer in Cairns – and sometimes shifting the itinerary north or south is all it takes to make the most of your travel dates.

Sometimes the best holidays start with a simple conversation. ❤️
