Description

Discover Joséphine's bathtub, the iguanas of îlet Chancel, the îlets of Le François and the white seabed with Oliv'Express. From heavenly landscapes to crystal-clear waters and Creole flavours, every moment of your excursion will be a unique experience. The islets of Le François and Le Robert are must-sees, renowned for their magical walks. Protected by a coral reef, the islets are linked by a deep white sandy beach, where the translucent water is sometimes less than a metre deep.

Olivier, a professional skipper and knowledgeable guide, will put you at ease as soon as you arrive. Thanks to his expertise, you’ll enjoy a fascinating exploration of the flora and fauna, as well as the history of the islets, the ‘fonds blancs’ and Martinique, all in a holiday atmosphere.

You’ll set sail on a Forboat, a 37-foot vessel that can accommodate up to 12 people. This large, stable, comfortable and safe boat is fully equipped: it features a sun awning, a swim ladder and three 300 cv engines for optimal sailing.

The excursions: The trip sets off from Le François harbour (4th entrance), with some light background music to get your adventure off to a great start! You can choose between a full day or a half-day trip.

On the programme: • Exploring the mangroves and François Bay. • A swim in a lagoon, surrounded by tropical fish and starfish. • An aperitif at the white sands of Le Trapèze, a legendary spot where you’ll enjoy vegetable accras without even having to get out of the water. • A visit to Chancel Islet to meet its famous iguanas.

If you opt for the full-day tour, you’ll have lunch in the shade of the thatched huts on Îlet Madame. After lunch, you can enjoy a relaxing break on the beach, go snorkelling or simply sunbathe. Then, head to Joséphine’s Bath and its famous white sandy seabed.
