The Heart of Martinique
Fort-de-France nestles within the island of Martinique, situated at the junction of the Caribbean Sea and the Atlantic Ocean, bathed in light, steeped in music, trimmed with superb beaches and abounding with luxuriant vegetation. Arriving by sea on the ferry that departs from Pointe du Bout, where the greatest concentration of tourist establishments on the island can be found, will enable you to appreciate Fort-de-France from its most flattering viewpoint. Visitors will enjoy a spectacular look at this bustling little city, nestled at the very farthest end of the magnificent Baie des Flamands and surrounded by hills, with the peaks of some of the island's highest mountains silhouetted in the background.
