Martinique
Martinique is the largest of the Windward Islands and is like visiting a little piece of France with a tropical twist.

The famous volcano, Mount Pele, in the North, is the highest point of the island and is surrounded by rivers, waterfalls and lush vegetation. The south features beautiful sandy beaches. There are several small villages in Martinique, each with its own main market and church. Throughout the island there are several boutiques and excellent restaurants, cafes and bars. Considered a part of main land France, provisioning in Martinique is superb.

Most charters start out of Le Marin, which is close to the airport.
