Martinique enjoys a tropical climate where it is humid and hot. The average temperature is in the low-20’s. The southern side of the island is more dry. The northern regions are richer with green rainforests, meaning there is more precipitation.

Martinique is a relatively safe Caribbean island. Main safety concerns when visiting the island include potential volcano eruptions and muggings.

Avoid travelling alone or at night. Petty crime is common and can occur at any time. Take particular precautions on the seaside and in the back roads of Fort-de-France.

Martinique has many water-based activities. Whether it’s taking a swim or jumping on the back of a jet ski, the island has nearly any adventure.

Dipping your toes into Martinique’s waters is a great reason to visit. But, you need to be safe. Ensure you and your family know how to swim before partaking in any serious water activities.

Extreme water sports always pose various safety risks, such as injuries or even death. Before you dive into any activity, be sure to use a reliable, safe company. Ensure they are using the most up-to-date equipment and following safety protocols.

Be sure to bring this important travel items with you on your trip to Martinique:

  • Insect Repellent – Mosquitoes and sand fleas are common in Martinique. Their bites are uncomfortable and can carry disease. Packing insect repellent will keep you safe and health whilst there.
  • Sun Cream – Martinique is a hot island, and sunburn is common. Ensure you pack sun cream with at least 35 SPF. This will help prevent painful sunburn and short or long term skin damage from sun exposure.
  • Light, Airy Clothing – Since the climate on Martinique is tropical, the weather is often dry, humid and warm. Pack thin clothing to promote airflow to your body whilst on the island. This will keep you comfortable and can prevent heat stroke or overheating.
  • Swimsuits – Martinique is an ideal location for seaside and water lovers. If you hope to take a dip on your holiday, don’t forget to pack your swimsuit. Packing one or two extra might also help ensure you’re always prepared for any water adventures.
  • Euros – The common currency in Martinique is the Euro. Ensure you bring the currency you, or set aside money to exchange into Euros.
