One of the best places to see and capture Martinique's Diamond Rock and La Dame Couchée in the same photograph: the city pier on the shores of Le Diamant.

Les Ateliers Médélices offers cooking classes and culinary-themed experiential travel programs designed to introduce travelers to French-Creole cooking.
