At Marie-Galante you will moor up on the leeward side of the island and let the picturesque charm of this peaceful haven take over.

As well as the numerous white sandy beaches and lagoons borded by coral reefs, this traditionally rural island is well worth visiting. Rent a scooter or take a bus around this quiet backwater where sugar cane plantations are everywhere. You will see the many windmills or their ruins, the distilleries (having a taste of the local ti-punch is a must!), the mangrove swamps, the picture-postcard scenery such as the Gueule Grand Gouffre, and you will appreciate the warm welcome of the local inhabitants ...

Marie Galante is an island where life is good, an authentic example of Caribbean living ...
