3 inside's questions to our explorer!


So why Martinique?

Despite its small size of only 1,100 sq.m, Martinique offers a variety of landscapes that makes it possible to go canyoning in the morning in the rivers that criss-cross the tropical forest in the north of the island and tan on warm sand beaches lined with coconut trees in the south of the island in the afternoon! Martinique also has exceptional sea life and is the perfect destination for scuba diving enthusiasts. Discover this abundant sea life with a simple mask and breathing tube, where you can encounter sea turtles and tropical fish. Anse Dufour and Anses d'Arlet are some of the best spots! And how can we forget to mention Martinican cuisine! There's AOC Rum, tropical fruit, fresh fish, cod fish fritters, etc.

So when are you leaving for Martinique?

Regardless of when you travel, you'll also find tropical weather! Martinique is a tropical destination where humidity varies from one month to another. Of course, in some months it rains more than others, especially July and September. However, regardless of the period of the year, the temperature will always be above 25° and the rain is warm! For a maximum of sun and a minimum of humidity, choose the months from December to April. If you're interested in seeing the Mardi Gras parades, come see us in February. For rum lovers, the sugar cane is harvested between March and June, a perfect time to see the distilleries at work.

What is your must-see in Martinique?

The town of Le Diamant is in my opinion the most beautiful nugget of the island! When I'm there, I walk along the main street from the town to the rock. For me, this town is the perfect place to get away from it all! At sunset, a short stop at the viewpoint of the Diamond Rock. Finally, after having dinner at the beach, I like to stop at the Cap 110 memorial, it is the ideal spot to observe the stars with the waves in the background.
