Le Marin, a region of Martinique
For centuries, Le Marin natural harbour has been a critical point of departure and arrival, linking Martinique with the rest of the Caribbean and beyond. The protected bay here has long been a safe haven for ships seeking shelter during storms, and over time, the region became a vital part of the island’s maritime heritage. It’s easy to imagine the days when tall ships crisscrossed the horizon, their crews making stops in Le Marin to trade goods or take on supplies.
While agriculture still plays a role, today, Le Marin’s claim to fame lies in its status as a major sailing hub. The marina here is one of the largest in the Caribbean, and the town itself has grown around this bustling port.
La Savane des PĂ©trifications
In the heart of this region lies the Savane des Pétrifications, a unique and otherworldly landscape that sharply contrasts with the lush greenery surrounding it. Once a petrified forest, the area now feels more like a desert, with its dry, rocky terrain standing in stark contrast to the rolling hills and fertile lands nearby. Walking through this stark landscape is a reminder of Martinique’s volcanic past, the very forces that shaped the island into what it is today.
