Getting Around Martinique

Road trips open up Martinique's towns and landscapes, but winding secondary roads and congestion make short map distances deceptive. A boat crossing can be useful around the Bay of Fort-de-France.

Why go

Plan transport around the parts of the island you actually want to see. A car gives flexibility for places beyond the main towns, while buses and shared taxis require more attention to routes and return times. Between Fort-de-France and Les Trois-Îlets, check the boat service as an alternative to driving around the bay.

Useful to know

  • Allow extra travel time on winding roads and when crossing the busy Fort-de-France and Le Lamentin area.
  • Check current bus, shared-taxi and boat timetables before relying on a return journey.
  • For a cross-bay visit, compare the Fort-de-France–Les Trois-Îlets boat with the road journey.
