The best hobbies and leisure activities Martinique

Passionate about oenology and an expert in the field, sommelier Caroline Monnier has developed a unique concept at Château Gaillard: workshops and training courses on wines and spirits. In sessions of 2h30 to 4h, or even a full day, depending on your wishes and budget, you can choose between an oenology workshop, an introduction to the basics of wine, whisky or rum tasting, a workshop on grape varieties, "wine and Creole cuisine", "rum and chocolate", champagne pairings, or "wines for women".

CFTS (Centre de Formation aux Techniques de Survie) is a continuing education center located in Le François. They offer survival courses, including an orientation and topography course. The aim of this course is to pass on the knowledge needed to get around in a natural environment. It runs from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. and is open to all. Participants will learn to understand and use a map, to use a compass, to evaluate distances, to use a GPS, and to use their knowledge in an orienteering race. No prerequisites are necessary, but good physical condition is recommended. Equipment required includes water, a flat compass, a change of clothes, food and a note-taker.
