Champagne Or Mero Beach-dominica

[sebritish]

Has anyone any photos of Champagne beach and Mero Beach on Dominica....we cannot decide which one to go to ....we heard Champagne is not sandy but small rocks?

I've been reading up on the beaches... From what I've read Champagne is great for snorkeling, however VERY rocky. Mero beach is a black sand beach. Google it and you can find pictures.

Thank you for the reply.... I think we have decided on Castaway or Mero ... they look the nicest....

Champagne REEF is a reef snorkel. No beach whatsoever, and it's a difficult, slippery-dangerous shore entry. It ought to be done as a boat excursion even though the reef is very close to shore.

 

I think a day on Dominica is better spent as an inland excursion to swim Titou Gorge or the other falls. The beaches are second rate compared to neighboring islands and Domonica's first rate 'gems' are missed by dedicating oneself to a second rate beach day.
