One of the French West Indies’ best-kept secrets, Martinique possesses the French charm of St. Tropez, the Caribbean feel of St. Lucia and the chic character of St. Barts, all without the crowds. And even as Martinique’s charm and appeal become more widely known, its paradisiacal beaches remain pristine, the rainforests are still ripe for exploring and its hotels stay distinctly boutique. As with any Caribbean island, the beaches are unparalleled and come in abundance. The white-sand arc of Grande Anse des Salines seems to stretch for miles, while Plage Anse d'Arlet plays host to one of the island’s most photogenic vistas. Plan Martinique holidays to coincide with the island’s Carnival celebrations in February for a colourful accompaniment to your beach days. See vibrant parades, rainbow-hued costumes and traditional dance performances filling the streets. Fort-de-France – the island’s capital – is worth spending a day away from the beach for, renowned for its lively streets, colonial-style buildings and local markets. The blend of Caribbean and French influences extends beyond the infrastructure and architecture, and into the kitchen. Rich culinary traditions fuse French techniques with Caribbean flavours, and the dining experiences during your Martinique holiday can range from street food stalls to five-star restaurants.
