Description

Hike Through a Protected Natural Environment

Because of its exposed position on the Atlantic Ocean, the peninsula receives significantly less rainfall than most parts of Martinique. As a result, it is home to a distinctive dry forest ecosystem.

As you follow the trail, the scenery constantly changes. You’ll cross different natural environments while enjoying spectacular views over the Atlantic coast.

Your hike follows the reserve’s shorter loop before continuing toward the beautiful Bay of Treasures. Along the way, you’ll also catch a glimpse of the Caravelle Lighthouse, built in 1861 and standing 149 meters above sea level.

Explore the Caravelle Mangrove

This hike is also known as the Caravelle Mangrove Trail, as it takes you through one of the most fascinating ecosystems on the peninsula.

Located between land and sea, the mangrove provides a vital habitat for a wide range of wildlife and plant species. With a little luck, you may even spot the White-breasted Thrasher, an endemic bird found in the Caravelle Nature Reserve.

After your hike, enjoy a refreshing swim in the calm waters of the Bay of Treasures. This peaceful break is the perfect way to complete your immersion in Martinique’s natural environment.

A Guided Hike with a Professional Local Guide

Throughout your Caravelle Peninsula hike, a professional guide accompanies you along the trail. They share their knowledge of the area’s history, geology, wildlife, and plant life.

Your guide also prioritizes your safety and adjusts the pace of the hike according to the trail conditions and the group.

Combining dry forest, mangrove, Atlantic Ocean views, and a refreshing swim in the Bay of Treasures, this Martinique hiking experience offers one of the best ways to explore the wild and protected landscapes of the Caravelle Nature Reserve.
