Discover Martinique Differently: Culture, Nature and Living Traditions

With Côte au Vent, every trip out to sea becomes much more than a simple excursion: it's an immersion into the heart of Martinique's identity. Sailing along the Atlantic coast, our guides share local stories, coastal anecdotes, legends of the islets, and wisdom passed down by elders. It's an authentic encounter with Martinique as it truly is: generous, welcoming, and deeply connected to the sea.

Traditional Flavors and a “Homestay” Spirit

Because Creole culture is also expressed around a good meal, our excursions can include a lunch prepared in the spirit of traditional "home-cooked" meals.

We showcase simple, authentic and family-style cuisine, like that which is shared in Martinique during large Sunday meals or convivial moments by the sea.


This format, which is very popular with visitors, allows you to:

  • to experience authentic Martinican cuisine;
  • rediscover the warm atmosphere of Creole houses;
  • to share an authentic meal, prepared with care and respect for traditions;
  • to feel welcomed as a guest, not just as a customer.
  • 

It's a genuine moment of human connection, which gives even more meaning to your day at sea.

Our Eco-Responsible Commitment

The beauty of Martinique lies in its fragile ecosystems, which we are committed to protecting every day. Côte au Vent adopts a responsible approach so that this natural heritage continues to shine for future generations.

🌿 Respectful Navigation

  • Voluntary speed reduction in sensitive areas
  • Strict adherence to navigation zones is required to avoid disturbing wildlife.
  • Rigorous engine maintenance to reduce environmental impact

🌱 Protection of White Seabeds and Mangroves

  • No anchoring is permitted in seagrass beds or near coral reefs.
  • Raising passenger awareness of best practices
  • Controlled passage through natural mangrove corridors

♻️ Concrete Actions

  • Waste reduction on board
  • Support for local preservation initiatives
  • Educational communication to encourage conscious tourism

We firmly believe that enjoying the sea must always go hand in hand with protecting the environment.

A Unique Ecosystem: Fauna, Flora and Local Wonders

The Atlantic coast is an inexhaustible source of wonder. Along the way, your guides will introduce you to a rich and sometimes little-known biodiversity: iguanas, tropical birds, multicolored fish, starfish, mangroves, seagrass beds, corals… Each outing becomes a true naturalist journey, accessible to all, punctuated by simple and fascinating observations and explanations.
