Where to stay in French West Indies

There are many beautiful places in Martinique. One of those we visited was Pointe du Bout. We took a ferry from Fort de France to get there. Located in South West coast of Martinique it has many restaurants and other shops and you can enjoy the beach. Check out the fun day we had in Fort de France, Martinique and Point du Bout. http://travelwith2ofus.com/this-is-what-a-fun-day-in-fort-de-france-martinique-is-like.php #Martinique #Caribbean #Springfun #Vacation #Travel #Photo #TravelPhotography #Travelpics #Wanderlust #Sailboat #Marina #FrenchCaribbean #Islands #boats #beach #FortDeFrance #PointeDuBout #photograph
