Location

From the airport

Allow about 55 minutes (48 km) from Martinique Aimé Césaire Airport, via the N1 road along the Atlantic coast (La Trinité, Sainte-Marie, then Le Lorrain).

• Try to arrive in daylight: roads in the north are winding.
• If possible, avoid rush hour around Le Lamentin and Fort-de-France.
• A car is essential. Need one? We can have a 5-seat automatic car delivered to the airport (€35/night), which you can add when you book.
