How is Martinique as a romantic setting?

Question

I'm looking for a nice place for a honeymoon.

Answer 1

Its certainly a beautiful place and has less of the grinding poverty that afflicts so much of the Caribbean. The mixture of French and Afro-Caribbean culture is charming and Antillean food is excellant.

Yes, the official language is French and most of the population actually speaks Creole which is a patois (the French based version of pidgin English). English speakers who are convinced that everyone in the world has a moral obligation to speak English might not be happy with this.

Have you looked at their website: http://www.martinique.org/

I think it would be an excellant choice for a honeymoon.

Answer 2

I was there 3 weeks ago. They want tourism, but hardly anyone speaks English. It would be difficult unless you speak French.
