The Big Ravine (also: Kusaia Ravine ) is a short river in the east of Dominica in the Parish Saint David .
geography
The Big Ravine rises on the ridge of the hill in the center of Atkinson and plunges in a short, steep course to the east, where it flows into the Atlantic after a few hundred meters, a little south of Pagua Pointe (Baraisiri Pointe) on the steep coast.
The springs arise from the same aquifer as the neighboring Magua River to the west and the Waynika Ravine to the south .
