We arrived at Martinique on a cruise ship. Fort de France called "Paris of the Caribbean" is the capital of Martinique. Marché Couvert (Grand Marche) is a covered market not air-conditioned. An opportunity to see the local people get their products.
It's a pleasing mixture of smells and Caribbean colors. You can buy fruits, vegetables, art, spices, baskets, flowers, wines, cloth, souvenirs and the variety is very good. The prices were reasonable. Everyone was extremely welcoming and sociable. Have several restaurants with all food types. I loved the place and my son enjoyed too.
When you visit Martinique remember to put Marché Couvert on your list of things to discover, you won't regret it.
