National Park in Martinique

Martinique is a slice of France set down in the tropics. Zouk music pouring out of tape players, bars and nightclubs will remind you, however, that Martinicans have a culture of their own, solidly based on West Indian Creole traditions.
Martinique's large towns feel like modern suburbs. Nevertheless, nearly a third of Martinique is forested and other areas are given over to pineapples, bananas and sugar cane fields. There are also plenty of hiking trails into the mountains.
Obviously Martinique is a fantastic destination for a National Park . But before you make a final decision you might want to check out the alternatives.
