Habitation Céron

Park and garden:
- A visit to Habitation Céron invites you to discover a tropical park of striking exuberance. Rivers, ponds and tropical gardens punctuate the walk. The highlight of the site is undoubtedly the majestic zamana, also known as the ‘rain tree’. Over 300 years old, it was voted the most beautiful tree in France in 2016. Visitors can observe a rich and varied fauna and encounter the matoutou falaise, a tree-dwelling tarantula endemic to the West Indies. Beyond the botanical tour, Habitation Céron is part of a strong agro-tourism initiative.

Julie Marraud des Grottes' chocolate – Habitation Céron, Martinique
- Julie Marraud des Grottes has revived cocoa cultivation and the production of exceptional artisanal chocolate, sourced directly from the Habitation Céron estate in Martinique. In a ‘from tree to bar’ approach, she masters every step of the process: growing the cacao trees, harvesting the pods, fermenting, drying and processing the beans.

The result is an intense and aromatic tropical dark chocolate, marked by the flavours of the northern Caribbean. Committed to a sustainable and agro-tourism approach, Julie also promotes the use of all parts of the cocoa tree, without waste, and is contributing to the revival of Martinique's cocoa industry.
Céron chocolates can be discovered and tasted on site, at the plantation's table or at the La

Réserve Créole shop in Saint-Pierre, a true showcase of local expertise
