Explore the island of flowers on board a boat and let yourself sail along the coast of Martinique. Coconut groves, abundant vegetation and local distilleries: the recipe for a successful cruise around the island! Situated in the arc of the Lesser Antilles, Martinique is surrounded by the paradisiacal Caribbean Sea. Like most of the islands in the region, it offers a steep landscape that is breathtaking.
In the north, the scenery mixes mountains and rocks with a wild tropical forest, while in the south you will find a drier climate that further favours the development of the tourist area. Besides its climate, the island of Martinique will also seduce you with its native animal species, whether terrestrial, marine or aerial, as well as its vegetation, which offers a breathtaking spectacle to its visitors all year round.
Do you want to be really impressed? Try hiring a catamaran in Martinique with a captain. And get ready: you're heading straight for a grand cruise in the West Indies!

Martinique enjoys a tropical climate and can be visited in all seasons. However, the best time to sail is between December and May. During this period, the outside temperature is around 28 °C and the water temperature ranges between 27 and 30 °C, perfect for escaping the winter of mainland France.

Is exploring the turquoise waters of Martinique your next goal? Find the boat that best suits your travel desires and sailing plans.
Sailing in the Caribbean arc requires a good knowledge of navigation: beware of the different effects caused in the winds due to the differences in relief between the islands. Never hire a boat without a captain without first making sure you have all the experience necessary to sail in this area. Find out well in advance about the weather and in particular the risks of cyclones (August and September are the most likely months).
These are some of the reasons why we recommend renting a boat in Martinique with a captain. When you can count on such a vast experience (that of the captain), the cruise immediately becomes safer and more idyllic, especially aboard a sailboat sailing the Caribbean Sea.
