　　This palm-fringed beach with coarse golden sand and lots of shade is one of Martinique’s most appealing strands. It's not altogether suitable for swimming, though, because the waters are rough, with lots of wave action. It's popular with surfing children.

Must-see attractions

Jardin de Balata

　　Just 10km north of Fort-de-France, this mature botanical garden in a rainforest setting is one of Martinique’s top attractions and will please anyone with even a passing interest in the island's plant life. The hour-long walk around the garden is clearly marked, and a tree walk and fish ponds will...

Grande Anse des Salines

　　A perfect arc of white sand, Grande Anse des Salines is the Caribbean you came to see. Palm trees lean over the ribbon of beach that shelves ever so gently into a classic turquoise sea. It's located about 5km south of Ste-Anne along the D9 and there are hundreds of...

Zoo de Martinique

　　One of northern Martinique's biggest attractions, this zoo–botanical garden–historical site almost gives you three for the price of one.

Plage Anse d'Arlet

　　This gorgeous stretch of dark-golden sand in front of Anse d'Arlet Bourg is backed by the village's 18th-century church and is one of the loveliest places to swim in Martinique. The beach is bookended by restaurants and bars, and it's rarely difficult to find your own spot beneath the various...

　　The hulking fortress that gave the city its name lies on the far side of La Savane and dates from 1640, although most of what stands today is the result of subsequent additions. It's easily the top sight in town, and guided tours are informative and fun. Buy tickets at...
