Tartane, Martinique

We returned to Martinique to spend a full week. We stayed in Tartane, a village on a remote eastern peninsula. It was very pretty and a good base, since it wasn't very far to the capital, to the north, or to the south. The house we rented was pretty, but we didn't really care for the owners, who were overly interested in the money and didn't leave us basic things like toilet paper, bath towels, soap, etc., all of which we had to buy, which was inconvenient. Still though, it was a pleasant enough place to spend a really great week.

We left Pagua Bay at 5 am, took the 10 am ferry back to Martinique, taxied to the airport, rented a car, and drove to Tartane. We were exhausted by the time we got to the house. Also, I think the motion sickness pills we got Max (sold individually in a dirt-floored pharmacy in a village in Dominica) may have knocked him out.
The patio was the nicest part of the house.
Gorgeous view from the patio of the village of Tartane.
