These Are the 25 Caribbean Ferry Rides Every Traveler Should Do at Least Once

Martinique to Dominica (L’Express des Îles)
This inter-island route takes about 2 hours, passing between two volcanic, mountainous islands. Leaving Fort-de-France, the ferry travels along Martinique’s coastline before entering the channel. Dominica rises dramatically ahead — steep ridges, waterfalls hidden in the folds of the mountains, and the rugged profile that defines the island. Approaching Roseau by sea is unforgettable — it’s a true bucket list experience.
