Where is the commune of Saint-Pierre in Martinique?

The commune of Saint-Pierre in Martinique is located on the Caribbean coast, in the north of the island. Destroyed in 1902 during the last eruption of the peeled mountain, the city of Saint-Pierre in Martinique was once considered the cultural capital of the island, "the little Paris of the Antilles". If this town with authentic charm is struggling to regain its former glory, it nevertheless offers many points of tourist interest. We highly recommend the town of Saint-Pierre to travelers looking for a peaceful holiday, anxious to discover an authentic Martinique.

We recommend that you opt for a seasonal rental in Saint-Pierre if you are planning a 15-day stay in Martinique. By booking a villa in the north of Martinique and a villa in the south of Martinique, you will easily discover the whole island without spending too much time on the roads. The north of the island will allow you to discover a more authentic, greener Martinique. In the south of Martinique you will find the white sand beaches lined with restaurants and shops. By combining north and south you will have a complete vision of what the island has to offer. If this is a unique trip, do not miss the north!
