BEAUSEJOUR, Guadeloupe- Residents across several parts of the Caribbean, including the Virgin Islands were shaken this morning, October 27, 2025, after a magnitude 6.5 earthquake struck Dominica, Guadeloupe, and Martinique.

In fact, three earthquakes have been recorded in that area within an hour today.

The 6.5 magnitude earthquake occurred 162 kilometres east of Beausejour, Guadeloupe at 8:38 AM, according to the US Geological Survey.

The shaking was felt even in the Virgin Islands.

Meanwhile, a 6.0 magnitude earthquake was recorded almost in the same area around 8:54 AM and a 5.4 magnitude earthquake around 9:26 AM.

Authorities in Guadeloupe and the surrounding islands are monitoring very closely for a tsunami warning and damage to villages.

    That’s quite alarming — three significant quakes in such a short span is no small event. Hopefully everyone in Dominica, Guadeloupe, Martinique, and nearby islands is safe and there’s minimal damage. The Caribbean region sits in a very active seismic zone, so it’s a reminder of how important early warning systems and preparedness are. Good to hear that authorities are monitoring for any tsunami risk — let’s hope there’s no major impact and that aftershocks stay minor.
