About Fort-de-France
Fort-de-France smells of bougainvillea, coffee, and French pastries—the capital of Martinique where Creole architecture meets Parisian sophistication. Bassy balconied townhouses line the streets, while the Bibliothèque Schoelcher is a cast-iron marvel transported from Paris. The island's volcanic interior offers hiking, while offshore rum distilleries produce some of the world's finest rhum agricole.
