It was hard to find this botanical gardens. It is located in the mountain with no indications, until we were close to it. The owner gave us a tour. We had great views and amazing flowers and plants. We took our time. It was amazing that the cost was 5 Euros. There were so many beautiful flowers, as well as plants. Our guide brought us to his home. He showed what he eats from his gardens. That was very interesting. He had also cacti. By the way, the guide is very friendly. A must see!

One of the most popular beaches on the island, best known for its soft white sands and calm, sheltered waters.
Reviewed By rogerka - Bratislava, Slovakia
For us, this is the most beautiful beach in Martinique. White sand, incredible turquoise warm clean Caribbean sea, shades of palm trees... You can park your car right next to the beach. There are some restaurants, souvenir and ice-cream sellers. Don't forget to visit the beautiful wooden walkway above the salty pond Étang des Salines. It depends on the season, the day of the week and day time, whether the beach is bit crowdy or not. Of course, it is very popular but I don't feel like it's overcrowded there. You can see in the pictures attached. The beach is natural but you can find one or two picnic tables among the trees. We also enjoyed the sunset and saw the green flash at the sunset. You can see Diamond Rock (some 45 km) from the beach Les Salines. This is definitely one of our most favourite places in Martinique.

From the name of the famous family who settled there for nearly a hundred years from 1887, the Habitation Clément is a vast agricultural area of 160 hectares, nestled in the town of Le François, in the South-East of Martinique. Dominated by a Creole house dating back to the 18th century, this site, listed as a historical monument in 1996, is home to a major heritage site, a well-known contemporary art centre and a renowned rum house in the heart of sugar cane plantations.

Our Cruise ship had called at Martinique and 6 of us quickly found a Taxi (Mini bus) just outside the port. We negotiated a fare (180 Euros Total - 30 Euros each) and the driver took us to Habitation Clement. The journey was about 30 minutes and the driver said we would need about 2 hours and that he would wait for us. The entrance fee was a further 13 Euros each. (So a total of 43 euros each person for the taxi & entrance which we thought was reasonable). You start off walking round the lovely grounds admiring the modern sculptures. Then there is the old (unused) Rum distillery building, equipment and Rum storage facilities which was interesting and then the old Plantation house to look around. The tour ends with a visit to the shop where you can taste (and purchase) some of the different rums they produce. All in all, a lovely trip and well worth the visit. The driver was waiting for us as promised and took us back to the ship.

Set in beautiful grounds and only a short drive from Trois Islet, La Savane des Esclaves is a must visit site. It is one if not the best sites I’ve seen in the Caribbean depicting the history of the island and the slave trade. With plaques clearly written in English and French the site provides a fascinating history of Martinique with a story line that picks upon on key individuals instrumental in the Abolishment of the slave trade and the history of this beautiful Island of Flowers and people. Difficult to leave this site and not think about the peoples of Martinique and the wider Caribbean. Touches the heart and soul of what is to be a Martinican.

Reviewed By 61Waldo - Saskatchewan, Canada
Fabulous beach, though it is a bit small. It has really good bathroom and changing facilities, which is such a rarity. One area is good for snorkelling with varieties of fish. Sea turtles hang out here as well and that was really the highlight for us. A crowd of snorkelers was out looking around, and three turtles swam through, down to the bottom to feed, up to the top for air and back down again. One of the three was at least a metre long (shell length). Fabulous day! It tends to fill up quickly, and parking is on the side of the road, so for a successful day, plan on getting there no later than 8:30 in the morning, spend a few hours and head out before it gets too crowded.
