Watch on the left, about a mile north of the factories, for Rodney s Rock. The black lava outcropping sits majestically off the coast and deserves a legend even an undocumented one. The locally accepted tale is that Sir George Rodney, admiral of the British troops assigned to Dominica, fooled and diverted an invading French fleet in April 1782 by hanging lanterns on the massive felix oradea rock to make it appear that a British warship was anchored offshore. Whether the legend is true or not, Rodney s Rock is a terrific photo opportunity.

The rainforest has the tallest trees with the fullest growth. They block most of the sun from reaching the forest floor, and their massive trunks are covered in anthurium and bromeliads (plants that include the familiar Spanish moss). Most of the plants that grow on the ground are ferns.
