Red Rocks (Pointe Baptiste)
15° 35.8′ N · 61° 20.6′ W
A surreal sweep of wind-carved, rust-red volcanic rock on the Pointe Baptiste headland near Calibishie, with Atlantic surf below and Guadeloupe and Marie-Galante on the horizon.
Practical
Coordinates from OpenStreetMap ('Red Rocks', bare rock, Calibishie). Short walk from the road; combine with Batibou or Calibishie beaches and a seafood lunch in Calibishie (Discover Dominica's Calibishie tour). Rock is slippery when wet; stay back from the cliff edge. Reach by road from Portsmouth.
