What was once an economically backward place, Fort-de-France – the capital of Martinique and also the French West Indies’ largest city – has transformed itself into a popular cruise ship destination. It is a French territory located in the Caribbean Islands notable for its Old-World charm with its historic colonial structures, intricately wrought iron balconies, colorful tropical flora, and beautiful beaches.
Aside from two of its newly built port terminals, Fort-de-France has several landmarks that draw in tourists. La Savane Park features a statue of its most famous native, Josephine, first wife of Napoleon. There is also the Martinique Museum of Archeology and Prehistory which showcases artifacts from the island’s pre-Columbian history. If you have joined a cruise and Martinique is one of your travel destinations, you may want to drop by and linger in Fort-de-France.
There are several affordable vacation rentals that offer the coziest home-like stays ideal for traveling families. Check out our list of Airbnb vacation rentals in Fort-De-France, Martinique.
