Walk the short, spectacular headland trail linking two of Martinique's most beautiful coves, swimming at each end away from the day-tripper buses.
What to expect
The path climbs briefly through dry coastal forest with views over turquoise water before dropping to a second black-sand cove ringed by cliffs. Locals fish from the rocks and fishing boats bob just offshore. It's the kind of unbranded, unhurried scene a Martiniquais would actually send a friend to see.
Good to know
Go mid-afternoon before sunset for the best light and thinner crowds; wear proper shoes, the trail is uneven volcanic rock in places.
