Dont want to carry too much or too little. Whats the average cash people carry when travelling around Dominica?
Most budget-conscious travelers in Dominica head out with roughly EC$90 a day in mind for food, taxis, and excursions. Staying near Portsmouth Harbor made travel easy. Taxis cost about EC$10 per ride on average. Expect natural attractions to sometimes charge entrance fees, so add a little wiggle room
Dominica isn’t super expensive, but you want to be prepared. Daily budgets around $45 cover meals at cafés like Café Indigo, taxis around town, and park entrance fees. I stayed at Melody Motel, which offered good value. Boat rides to Champagne Reef add extra costs.
A typical daily budget for Dominica is about $40-$50 USD. This covers eats at local spots near Fort Young Hotel, taxi trips to popular beaches like Mero, and admission to hot springs. Lodging ranges more widely, so some travelers budget extra for comfort.
Dominica travelers I met tend to budget around EC$80 to EC$120 per day ($30-$45) which covers simple meals, local taxi fares from Roseau to Portsmouth, and entrance fees for natural parks like Trafalgar Falls. Small group tours or boat trips cost extra, so plan accordingly.
