Guadeloupe is a duo of two islands: Basse-Terre and Grande-Terre, forming the shape of a butterfly. To the west, Basse-Terre’s lush landscapes and rugged terrain encourage adventurers, while the eastern wing, Grande-Terre, unveils luxurious resorts and endless coastal beauty.
Beyond these twin islands, Marie-Galante, La Désirade, and Les Saintes form a secluded cluster of outer gems, each offering its own unique charm. Sail to the island of 100 windmills, Marie-Galante, where sugarcane fields, rum distilleries and historic windmills paint a picturesque landscape. Dive into the vibrant underwater world near Jacques Cousteau’s Underwater Reserve near Pigeon Island, a must-visit for marine enthusiasts.
For those seeking a taste of French culture, Les Saintes welcomes you with red-tiled roofs reminiscent of St. Barts. Explore Fort Napoléon and indulge in exquisite French cuisine at charming restaurants.
Just a short sail away, discover the famous 350-foot Carbet Waterfalls, a natural wonder that will leave you in awe.
