Le Robert walks

A beautiful walk offering a comprehensive view of Martinique’s various coastal environments and biotopes. It passes through the dry forest (as opposed to the more humid tropical forest), the coastline, and the various mangrove swamps. The walk extends beyond the simple Pointe Banane circular route to the sugarcane fields, offering an exceptional view. You’ll find trees such as the kapok tree and the red gum tree, as well as a few historical features, such as the two lime kilns. Locally, you can discover a typical fisherman’s hut, made of corrugated iron and wood. The route includes two beaches – one pebbly, the other sandy with turquoise waters – as well as interesting viewpoints over the Galion bays, culminating in a breathtaking 300° panoramic view of the entire bay.
