Martinique, Caribbean

Martinique is a major sailing hub in the Caribbean. The capital, Fort-de-France, has a deep harbour, and the island is a popular stop for transatlantic yacht crossings and charters. Le Marin, in the south, is one of the largest marinas in the region.

Traditional yole racing, a unique form of sailing with local wooden boats, is a key part of Martinique’s maritime culture.
