Basse-Terre is a beautiful French commune located on the southwest corner of the island of Basse Terre in Guadeloupe. If the tropical climate and beautiful seaside views that grace most of the town don’t bring you here maybe one of the most notable draws to the area including the Soufriere volcano, historic monuments, city-wide festivals, and more will. So grab your bags and book some tickets and get to Basse-Terre. But before you get there, be sure to check out this list of Airbnb vacation rentals in Basse-Terre!
