Martinique is one of the showcases of the French Caribbean. The capital, Fort de France, fully lives up to that description, celebrating every aspect of the island's all-encompassing French culture with style and panache.

What's fashionable in Paris today is à la mode here very swiftly. Shops sell the latest goods from France. Art galleries, theatres and museums showcase French culture. Street names celebrate French military and literary heroes, while old men play boules in the dusty squares and crowds sit at the pavement cafés watching the Citroens and Renaults inching through the narrow streets.

If it weren't for the tropical climate, it could almost be Paris - and in some ways it is. The city's Schoelcher Library, a 19th century Romanesque-Byzantine masterpiece, was built in the French capital, dismantled and shipped to Martinique, where the entire building was re-assembled, down to the mosaics.

While the capital and other towns provide the comforts, elegance and sophistication of France, other parts of this highly-developed and popular tourist destination offer visitors the classic Caribbean vacation. There are flawless beaches - white sand on the south coast, black in the north; secluded coves for swimming and reefs for snorkeling; unspoiled fishing villages; hot springs, lush rainforests and woods; rugged peaks and gorges; and everywhere flowers and fruit - bougainvillea, orchids, lilies, bananas, pineapples, papaya and coconut palms.
