Mahaut, Dominica is not an independent country or city, but a borough located in the Caribbean island nation of Dominica. Mahaut, the main town of the country's St. Paul's Parish, is situated on the west coast of the island, about 5 kilometers from the capital city of Roseau, and has a population of about 2,500. The area is dominated by agriculture and fishing, producing tropical crops such as bananas and coconuts, as well as tranquil beaches and dense rainforests that attract eco-tourists. Conveniently located close to Melville Hall Airport, Maho has relatively good infrastructure and is a small hub for local community life and business activities.
With its backdrop of Dominica's volcanic mountains and Caribbean Sea, Maho enjoys a warm and humid climate, with an average year-round temperature of around 26°C. The surrounding area is rich in natural beauty, including ebony forest hiking trails and coral reefs, making it a perfect place for outdoor adventures. Because of Dominica's reputation as an "island of nature", Maho also has an untouched, unspoiled charm and is an ideal location for observing tropical birds and marine life.
The economy is based on agricultural exports and a small service sector, with a gradual development of community tourism in recent years. The local culture is a blend of Creole traditions and colonial history, with annual festivals such as the Independence Celebration featuring music, dance and cuisine. Maho's simple people and infrastructure, including schools, medical centers and churches, reflect the typical pace of life in a small Caribbean town.
