We return with another tourist on Wednesday telling you about Fort Saint Louis in Martinique. The Fort is 600 meters long and 100 meters wide and rises 40 meters above the Française beach. The fort avoided numerous assaults, including several victories such as the Battle of Fort Royal on July 20, 1674.

It is open to the public daily with a cost of 8 euros for adults and half for children that includes a tour of approximately one hour. Now the fort is an active Naval Base.
La Savane was built in the 18th century and used for training by the French military stationed in Fort Saint Louis. In 1830, La Savane converts to Le Jardin du Roi (The Garden of the King). The redeveloped La Savane is an area for walks and to have a picnic.
Française Beach is located at the front of the Saint Louis Fort.
It is perfect for the passengers of the cruises (short walking distance). Enjoy a peaceful day in the city!
