France's Caribbean - Creole joie de vivre and French chic
White sandy beaches, azure seas, banana trees, rain forest
Over 2000 floral species; a bird watcher's paradise
Napoleonic forts, colourful Creole maisons, lively markets
Great choice for walking holidays
Lying in the middle of the Lesser Antilles island chain, these Caribbean islands have a bewildering variety of terrain: volcanoes belching out sulphur clouds, luxuriant rain
forests, cascading waterfalls, pineapple plantations, thermal springs and
both black and white sand beaches - ideal for exploring on a relaxed walking holiday. Colonial style plantation houses are bright with flamboyant trees, bird of paradise blooms and pink oleander. Mango, guava, and banana flourish in the well-tended gardens. The
oceans encircling the sandy bays are a water palette of hues ranging from midnight
blue to palest green.
Walking holidays in the French Caribbean
Home to over 2000 floral species and on the main migratory route for birds, the
islands here are a paradise ideal for walking holidays. Both islands have a distinct French flavour - from the familiar yellow post boxes to the baguettes freshly baked every morning. This blend of French sophistication lends the islands a unique ambience in the Caribbean and our walking holiday here lets you kick back and enjoy the joie de vivre as locals enjoy a rum punch under the palm trees or chatter animatedly to each other in the colourful markets.
