Martinique, C'est Magnifique!

Situated in the Caribbean Sea, this ‘island of flowers’ is under French rule and as such is part of the European Union (local language is French, currency is the euro). Don't be surprised if you bump into various celebrities on the beaches, being home to such magical scenery, Martinique has many famous fans. 

Discover lush mountains in the north and volcanoes which give rise to ‘peppery’ (black and white) sands lapped by azure blue waters. The island’s culture is a seductive mix of French and Creole, witnessed in Martinique’s rhythmic ‘zouk’ music (similar to Merengue) and its fusion food. MSC cruise ships travel to the capital of Fort de France, a lively and bustling port where chic French styles meets a laid-back island atmosphere.

Joining one of our excursion packages will help visitors quickly get a feel for this lovely island, and passengers can take advantage of the best deals on key sights such as the Saint Louis Cathedral, the Traditional Costumes Museum, or a trip to a rum distillery. Martinique rum has now been awarded the prestigious French ‘AOC’ label, and is considered to be among the best in the world.
