How is Dominica Island's Tourism Industry?

I have learned several years back in one of the seminars I have attended that Dominica's tourism is underdeveloped. I wonder why... It's a very beautiful place and it is found in the Caribbean... How come its tourism industry is not as good as the other islands?

Yes , Dominica island have underdeveloped tourism though it has a few famous tourist spots, such as the Indian River in Portsmouth, Emerald Pool, Trafalgar Falls, Scotts Head (where the Atlantic Ocean meets the Caribbean Sea), and the world's second-largest boiling lake which is inside Morne Trois Pitons National Park, Dominica's World Heritage site. This island country also has many excellent diving spots due to its steep drop-offs, healthy marine environment, and reefs.
But unlike many other Caribbean islands, Dominica's tourism is underdeveloped. It does not have any world-famous chains of hotels.
