Delices is a small village in Dominica. It is located in the south-east of the island, between La Plaine and Petite Savanne.

The village's name derives from the French words délices, translated as "delights", or délice meaning "a delightful thing". Though not as developed as other parts of the island, its natural environment and views attract eco-tourists. It is home to the White River[1] and Victoria Falls.

The village was home to the Jungle Bay Resort and Spa.
