Fort de France

Experience Caribbean Magic in Fort de France

Who doesn’t want to experience the Caribbean magic of Martinique? Fort de France is the capital of this island, as well as the largest city in the French West Indies. Get a real taste of the tropics with a stop at Distillerie la Favorite, where you can taste several varieties of rum.

See stunning flora at Jardin de Balata, a short drive from Fort de France. This botanical garden features huge tropical plants and flowers, lots of hummingbirds, and even rope bridges, which kids love. There’s even a restaurant onsite if you get hungry.

If you love learning about where you travel, the Musée Départemental de la Martinique in Fort de France is the place to go to hear about the history of the island and indigenous people.
