Plage des Surfeurs

Martinique


This is where most surfers in Martinique are heading, a fantastic spot with great waves crashing onto a golden shore. There's nothing here other than lots of other surfers, but several surf schools are located in the houses directly behind the beach, and some instructors even hang out on the sand looking for customers.
