Turquoise waters and coconut palms, black sand and golden sand and flamboyant sunsets ... Beyond the tropical postcard, Martinique invites you on a journey to the heart of a living Creole culture. Where old French medieval folk songs are played to the rhythm of the biguine or zouk, and where contemporary art reinvents itself in sugar cane plantations!

Martinique: what to do, what to see...
ESSENTIALS
The island of Martinique rises jewel-like from the Caribbean. Its beaches are of black sand in the north, and golden sand in the south. The active volcano of Mount Pelée, a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2023, is an open invitation to view the island from above, while the subsea world is a regenerative experience for divers. From brightly coloured fishing yoles to typically Caribbean beats, Creole culture works its magic everywhere here.
