Martinique is one of the smallest of France’s overseas territories. With its lush rainforests, volcanic mountains, and spun-sugar shores, it’s also one of the most enchanting. Your visit begins in Saint Pierre, once nicknamed the “Paris of the Caribbean.” This lovely colonial town on the island’s west coast abounds with charming bistros and fine restaurants, beautiful architecture, and placid beaches. Visit a heritage rum distillery, wander the island’s wild jungle trails, or dive one of its many reefs or shipwrecks. In between adventures, indulge in Martinique’s signature fusion of French, Creole, and African flavours.
