The eastern Atlantic coast of Martinique is raw and beautiful, filled with tiny coves and bays surrounded imposing villas on green hills. 

It’s a place for quiet and escape, for secluded beauty, as is all of Martinique, an island that is as fascinating as it is gorgeous; one of those places that still remains romantic, exotic. 

Just off the beach at Cap Est in the town of Le Francois is the essence of Martinique’e East; a seductive lagoon, serene and turquoise. 

Take a moment to enjoy the spectacular natural wonder of this place in the latest Caribbean Moment video below.
