Detail of the stay : Escapades in Martinique - 7 days
Day 1: Arrival in Martinique
Steps: Le Lamentin
You'll arrive at the airport of Lamentin. You are perhaps exhausted by the journey, and you'll have only one idea in mind: to run to your holiday resort. A good shower, a welcome ti-punch and off to bed!
Day 2: Relaxation and preparation
Wake up at sunrise around 6am. After a night's sleep, you'll be in great shape: you can already taste the pleasure of tropical well-being. The sky is blue with strong luminosity. We suggest you take advantage of the hotel (lazing around, swimming pool, beach) and take your bearings in order to organize your week.
Day 3: Leeward coast
Steps: Fort-De-France, Le Prêcheur, Saint-Pierre, Les Anses D'Arlet, Morne-Rouge
You're getting used to the time difference. Take the opportunity to set off early in the morning to discover the "leeward" west coast. Head up the south Caribbean coast, stopping for breakfast at Anses d'Arlet. Then head for Fort-de-France for shopping and the market. Then head north to Le Prêcheur. Visit the Balata botanical garden and have lunch on Le Carbet beach. In the afternoon, stop off at Saint-Pierre, then take the Morne-Rouge road via the Trace rainforest, which leads down to Fort-de-France. Simply breathtaking.
JARDIN DE BALATA
Day 4: Day at sea
Steps: Sainte-Marie, Le Marin, Sainte-Anne, Les Trois-Îlets
Day charter, which means a trip at sea aboard a boat, often a "maxi-catamaran". Departures from Les Trois-Îlets, Le Marin or Sainte-Anne. The most classic circuit is the South Caribbean coast and, for sea lovers, a day trip to Sainte-Lucie (English-speaking island to the south). Departure around 9 a.m. and return at sunset. Lunch on board, swimming and snorkeling stops.
BALADES
Day 5: Field day
Steps: Les Trois-Îlets, Le François, Le Robert
If you're not too exhausted, you can devote the day to sporting activities such as scuba diving (1/2 day), water scootering (1/2 day) or canoeing around Le Robert, Le François, Les Trois-Îlets or Cap-Chevalier, as well as windsurfing at Cap-Chevalier, sightseeing flights by plane or from the islets, canyoning... The possibilities are endless.
Day 6: Cultural day
Steps: Les Trois-Îlets, Rivière-Pilote
Visit one of the famous Martinican distilleries in the morning and visit the Maison de la Canne museum in the afternoon, before attending a cockfight in a pitt, near Rivière-Pilote.
MAISON DE LA CANNE
Day 7: Departure
It's already departure time. Most flights depart in the late afternoon. Some accommodations allow you to change at the airport before departure, with luggage storage and showers at your disposal. This is a great advantage, as it means you can make the most of your last moments on the island, and plan a little swim, for example.
