  CATAMARAN HOLIDAYS IN MARTINIQUE

Martinique, an island in the Caribbean discovered by Colombo during his fourth voyage, is located in the Lesser Antilles archipelago and in particular in the Windward Islands. It has a length of 80km by 39km of width for a total development of more than 200km of coastline. Part of the French Overseas Department, it is EU territory, therefore an identity card is sufficient for access and the official currency is the Euro. The official language is French, spoken by all, although the local language is Creole. The close link with France has led to considerable investments in the last 30 years in order to promote sustainable tourism development. Cities have modernized, without losing that traditional tropical and Creole charm. Fort-de-France is the capital, located on the south-west coast, while Le Marin is the most developed tourist-sailing center, with an important marina. Martinique sailing charters are based here: we have 91 catamarans and about twenty sailboats chartered by our local reference operators. A catamaran holiday in Martinique is a condensation of Caribbean emotions: the sea that varies from turquoise to overseas tones, the palm-fringed beaches, the rainforests. The sand is white in the south, while beaches of lava origin abound in the north. This area is in fact dominated by the volcano La Pelée, 1397m high which in 1902 erupted causing the complete destruction of the Saint Pierre village. You can visit the ruins of the ancient charred village, a sort of Caribbean Pompeii. Today, despite being in a semi-dormant phase, the volcano is closely monitored by the authorities. If you choose Martinique catamaran charter you will have the opportunity to circumnavigate the island and visit this Caribbean gem. The beaches in the south are white or golden, many wild and others equipped with umbrella bars and sundecks. Further this part of the island offers various anchorage possibilities in picturesque, quiet and protected bays. In the vast bay of Port-de France one can anchor at Ans Mitan, or at Trois Ilets exactly facing the capital. This last place is named by the presence of the three islets facing the bay, which make it a much photographed destination. Fort-de-France is the capital, and the liveliest city. It can be anchored in the port, between the ferries and Fort San Louis. With 86,000 inhabitants, it is full of shops, restaurants and is the hub for buses which, thanks to an efficient system of internal roads, lead anywhere on the island. Yes, because the hinterland of the island offers wonderful landscapes, dominated as it is by rainforests, hills and mountains. Trekking routes are organized, not to be missed for lovers of naturalism. Martinique catamaran cruise means enjoying the splendid sea and the constant wind: then from the capital route north-west to reach the wildest part of the island. We will shortly arrive in Saint Pierre, where we will moor for a stop in today's village rebuilt after the disastrous eruption of the volcano. A short distance away you can visit the ruins of the old charred village. And then we will dive back into the waves to complete the perimeter of the north island. The west coast, open to the trade winds, is wilder and windier. It will be an exciting return navigation along a very indented coast, with the presence of islets and shallow waters, but also some safe shelters such as La Trinité near a spectacular nature reserve. Once back in the south of Martinique, the marvelous white beaches reappear: Cap Chevalier, with the homonymous islet, the beaches of Salines and SaintAnne, now not far from our base in Le Marin.
