Martinique Aimé Césaire International Airport is the main gateway to the French Caribbean island of Martinique. Fort De France, Martinique's capital city, lies 10 minutes' drive away, in the middle of the island's west coast, with car rental in Fort De France Airport. Many visitors get their first glimpse of Martinique's breathtaking scenery when landing at the airport.
Not only can passengers fly directly to numerous Caribbean destinations from this airport, they can also travel to cities as diverse as Montreal, Paris, Miami and Caracas without stopping. Passengers can compare car hire and tours through operators with representatives at the airport. A florist, a pharmacy, restaurants, tax-free shopping, a hairdresser's and two hotels are among the airport's other services.
An 1839 earthquake and an 1890 fire destroyed many of Fort De France's historic landmarks, but Fort St Louis still stands in the harbour as a museum and French naval base. Over 200 flowers and plants blossom at the Jardin de Balata botanical garden, situated six miles outside Fort De France. Directly left of the gardens lies the easily accessible Absalon Waterfall, but two even more breathtaking waterfalls lie just 10 minutes' drive from Fort De France at Cascade Didier.
Martinique's high tourist season lasts from December to April, but the island enjoys the same humid tropical temperatures throughout the year. Hurricanes occasionally hit Martinique during its June to October rainy season, when locals frequently leave the island for mainland France. May and November may be the most pleasant times to come as crowds are low, rainfall is relatively rare and prices are at their lowest.
Martinique has more vehicles registered per person than anywhere in mainland France. This is among the reasons why Martinique public transportation is so limited and taxis are so expensive. However, Martinique's roads are among the best quality in the Caribbean and the greatest risks for motorists are the numerous speed cameras and gendarmerie who constantly conduct speed checks.
