Islet View Restaurant & Bar

Dominica


Enjoy breathtaking views of Castle Bruce Bay from this simple roadside shack, which was comprehensively distributed across the hillside during Hurricane Maria and has since been painstakingly reassembled. Ice-cold ginger beer comes in coconuts, the legendary bush-rum selection includes quirkily named flavors such as Theresa May, and the fried plantain and spicy dip starter is nothing short of heavenly.
