The temperatures are dropping and you’re dreaming of a beach by crystal clear water, sunshine and coconut palms…

HAVE A LOOK AT THE 5 UNUSUAL THINGS YOU CAN DO DURING YOUR STAY IN MARTINIQUE
A ROBINSON CRUSOE ADVENTURE
Head up to the extreme north of Martinique and more precisely a small fishing village that looks like it’s at the end of the world that’s called Grand Rivière. There, the major routes of the south give way to particularly Instagramable clifftops. Various tropical trees love the intense, humid vegetation where preserved endemic fauna thrives.
This is the almost unreal setting in which you’ll board your traditional fishing boat to go to the mysterious beach of volcanic sand at Anse Couleuvre, a paradise if you love snorkeling.
This activity is one you’ll love, where you’ll discover the bays of black sand that are totally free of all human presence, tucked away between huge craggy cliffs, and the fabulous myths about them.
Crossing duration: 15 to 20min (one way). Departure possible from Grand Rivière or from the Anse Couleuvre beach.
BATH IN FRESHNESS IN A TROPICAL FOREST!
Feel those vibrations, the adrenaline !
You’re at the heart of Martinique’s tropical forest surrounded by dense and preserved vegetation, about to rappel down a waterfall that’s almost 20 meters high !
