The Dominican Cabrits peninsula lies in the eastern Caribbean. The island of Dominica, which belongs to the Cabrits, was discovered in 1493 by Columbus - on a Sunday. So he named it "Dominica", the day of the lord. Over the centuries French, English, Danish and Dutch were trying to establish their colonies here. In 1763 the island became British and so it remained until 1978. Today, the island is independent. Around the volcanic island Cabrits lies a coral reef, one of the most beautiful underwater national parks of Dominica.
