The Waynika Ravine is a short river in eastern Dominica in the Parish Saint David .

geography

The Waynika Ravine rises on the ridge 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 near Burarati .

The springs arise from the same aquifer as the neighboring Magua River to the west and the neighboring Big Ravine to the north .
