Fodor's Expert Review Emerald Pool

Quite possibly the most visited natural attraction on the island, this emerald-green pool fed by a 50-foot waterfall is an easy trip. To reach this spot in the vast Morne Trois Pitons National Park, you follow a trail (an easy 20-minute walk) that starts at the side of the road near the reception center. Along the way, there are lookout points with views of the windward (Atlantic) coast and the forested interior. This spot is popular with cruise-ship tour groups, so choose your timing carefully. And wear a swimsuit, because you can (and will want to) take a dip.
