Dominica will have the longest cable car in the Guinness Book of World Records
Dominica is set to begin construction of the world's longest, 6.6 km detachable single-core cable car project, which will provide a safe, fast access to the world's second largest boiling lake, expected to be completed within 2 years and will be recorded by Guinness World Records as the longest cable car in the world, surpassing Vietnam's "Ba Na Big" cable car ( 5.8 km long). Minister of Tourism, International Transport and Maritime Affairs Denise Charles said the project will cost about $275 million. She believes that with the new project, Dominica will be a leader in the region's tourism industry.

Hospitality & Cruises
When the project is completed, tourists visiting neighboring countries will be drawn to the location of the fascinating attraction, and the cable car ride will be a prominent reason to do so. Tourists traveling to nearby countries for a 7-day trip will have Dominica on their list of places to visit for about 1-2 days. This means that the project will also benefit the hospitality industry. Outdoor Engineers, a European company based in Switzerland, conducted a feasibility study in Dominica which showed that the completion of the cable car project would triple the tourism boom in the Caribbean country. It also said that during the current cruise season, Dominica receives about two cruise ships per day, and after the cable car project, cruise ship rides will increase to at least six per day, with 15,000 passengers visiting Dominica daily during the peak season, meaning a sevenfold increase in tourism, providing huge opportunities for residents. Dominica already has three five-star hotels that are preparing to welcome visitors from all over the world, and there are already investors in hotels (meeting an investment of $220,000 or more) who have been granted permanent citizenship of Dominica, with a Dominica passport.
Cable car tour: through two waterfalls, rainforest, the second largest boiling lake in the world and many other beautiful natural wonders
OswaldGraber, president of Outdoor Engineering, said that they have completed more than 150 cable car projects and he believes that the cable car project in Dominica will be the most exciting trip in the world. He further stated that the cable car tour in Dominica will include breathtaking natural scenery as the cable car will travel through two waterfalls, rainforest, untouched mountains, the second largest boiling lake in the world and many other beautiful natural wond ers.
Currently, only 20% of visitors get off the cruise ship to explore Dominica, but the number of visitors will increase significantly to more than 50% when the cable car is completed, as it will provide visitors with an easy access to witness the unspoiled natural environment of the island and the boiling lakes. The cable car is an environmentally friendly way for people to enjoy the beauty of nature while commuting. According to reports, one cruise ship can accommodate about 5,000 passengers, two cruise ships embarking on the coast of Dominica can carry a total of 10,000 passengers, while six cruise ships will carry about 30,000 passengers.
Enhancing Dominica's tourism industry and its diversity
The survey also revealed that the project will not only boost tourism, but will also enhance the level of tour guides. Once the project is operational, there will be an urgent need for guides, as it is expected that many people will use the cable cars for one-way trips and use the hikes for another trip. The demand for guides has reportedly increased dramatically by more than tenfold where the cable cars are already in operation, and with more than 20,000 cable cars operating around the world, there is a win-win situation for all industries. The Dominica cable car trip will provide a passage through Morne Trois Pitons National Park, which is centered on a 1,342-meter-high volcano where lush tropical forests blend with spectacular volcanic landscapes of great scientific significance. With its steep slopes and deep valleys, 50 vents, hot springs, three freshwater lakes, a "boiling lake" and five volcanoes, Morne Trois Pitons National Park is located on nearly 7,000 hectares of parkland, showcasing a rare combination of natural features of World Heritage value and some of the richest biodiversity in the Lesser Antilles. Biodiversity.
Dominica's Morne This Piton National Park was listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1997. Dominica is a volcanic island in the Lesser Antilles with a rocky mountain range with steep volcanoes and deep valleys as its natural backbone. Now only the cable car project is possible, to see the world must see the priceless beauty. And surveys show that tourism around the world has increased at least threefold after the installation of cable cars. In some areas, many cable cars are fully booked, and reservations must be made 2 to 3 weeks in advance.

Benefits of Naturalization
Under the Dominica Citizenship by Investment program, investors are not only granted permanent citizenship of Dominica, but also become citizens of the Commonwealth Country and are free to live in the Organisation of Eastern Caribbean States, including spouses, children under 30 years of age, single siblings under 25 years of age, spouses and parents, and spouses and grandparents. Children under the age of 30, single siblings under the age of 25, spouse and parents, and spouse and grandparents. The naturalization process requires no landing, no immigration supervision, no educational requirements, and property ownership not only creates opportunities for investors and represents a status service, but the Dominica government will only approve a very small number of property projects for foreigners to invest in for naturalization. If you want to sell after five years of ownership, Cabrits Resort & Spa Kempinski Dominica, Secret Bay, Tranquility Beach Resort - CURIO Collection by Hilton, all have their own considerable value retention effect.
