Bongo Baths in Wotten Waven, a village in the Parish of St. George, Dominica, are chloride-rich sulfurous hot spring pools operated as a local community bathing destination in the heart of the island's volcanic highlands, where geothermal activity from the Boiling Lake volcanic system supplies warm mineral water to numerous springs throughout the valley. Wotten Waven has developed into a small but vibrant cluster of hot spring facilities serving both locals and eco-tourists exploring Dominica's extraordinary volcanic interior, and Bongo Baths' informal, community-rooted character contrasts pleasantly with more polished spa operations. The surrounding tropical forest, sulfurous spring streams, and dramatic volcanic scenery of the Wotten Waven valley create an authentically wild Caribbean thermal bathing experience.
