bigeagle12 Posted July 15, 2022 #1 Share Posted July 15, 2022 We were in Guadeloupe in 1996 and found a park-like area near the ship with cafes and shops. Can anyone tell me if it is still there, the name of it, and how to get there from the ship? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Belgian fry Posted August 16, 2022 #3 Share Posted August 16, 2022 The area directly around the port is fairly run down and some areas of Pointe à Pitre are not that safe. We went to the Mémorial ACTe (memorial-acte.fr), which deals with the history of slavery in the Caribbean. It was very well done and very moving. We also went to the Aquarium and enjoyed that. There are also rum distilleries to visit, plantations (coffee, vanilla, etc), hikes through the rainforest, cute villages (like Deshaies), etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
