Top 10 Points of Interest & Landmarks in Martinique, Martinique
This Gallic toehold in the Caribbean exudes a distinctly French air, enticingly spiced up by West Indian warmth. Local culture and cuisine combine both influences. The stylish isle is dominated by Mount Pelee, which destroyed the city of St. Pierre in 1902. Black sand beaches and rainforests are found in the north, with yet more beautiful sands to the south. Sights include La Pagerie, birthplace of Napoleon's Empress Josephine, and Diamond Rock, a 600-foot pinnacle, once registered as a British warship.

Cyparis was not a nice guy. Our guide explained. When the volcano erupted, it destroyed most of the prison. However, Cyparis survived the calamity. He was in another part of the prison. When they found him, they were amazed that he was still alive. I have a few photos where he was in prison. This part was saved. Worthwhile to see!
