Pointe a Pitre / Guadeloupe

Located in the centre of the island, on the isthmus that connects Basse-Terre and Grand-Terre, POINTE-À-PITRE is liveliest around the Quai de la Darse, an extensive pier edging the length of the waterfront. The quay itself is lined with Guadeloupe's liveliest markets, where a colourful jamboree of spices, fruit, fish and various tourist objects are hawked from dawn until early afternoon (Mon– Sat)
