Guadeloupe is an island of incredible diversity, with suprises to uncover even below the surface. In the south, fumaroles, cones, and craters form the volcanic landscape of La Soufrière. At an altitude of 1,467 metres, this firey giant dominates the entire Lesser Antilles archipelago. Meander between the basalt fields and lush vegetation to catch a glimpse of the sea and the Marie-Galante coast. Make your way through the steam... After a great walk and an adventurous ascent, savour a moment of tranquility at one of the thermal springs.
Behind the tranquility of the coastline lies a treasure trove of greenery. In the south of Basse-Terre, follow the seaside paths into a natural haven: the Carbet Falls, at the foot of La Soufrière. Although the steep paths can be treacherous, these waterfalls, set amidst densely wooded peaks, are a truly rewarding sight. Venture into this Caribbean paradise and discover all its hidden gems.
On market days, the stalls are teeming with all the treasures of the West Indies. In a plethora of colours and scents, fruits, vegetables, spices, and other sweet delicacies take pride of place. Visit Saint-François market to experience Guadeloupe and its unique flavours. Savour a local punch with a Colombo and peruse the creations and artisanal produce.
