History and culture visiting Caribbean jewels

Opposite Saint-Christopher island, Nevis will win you over by its more easy-going rhythm than its neighbour, and by its tranquil atmosphere. Go ahead and explore the rich history of this island, admire its Georgian architecture in Charlestown and smell the wonderful scent of the tropical flowers in Nevis’s botanical garden. The sumptuous landscapes that adorn this volcanic island offer you pleasant hiking opportunities at the foot of Nevis peak. And to cool down, you’ll enjoy taking a dive into the turquoise waters, so characteristic of the Caribbean.

Falmouth is a town on the coast of Cornwall in southwest England. It’s known for its deep natural harbour on the Fal Estuary, and beaches like Swanpool and Gyllyngvase. The National Maritime Museum Cornwall has interactive galleries and a flotilla of model boats. On Pendennis Point, Pendennis Castle is a well-preserved 16th-century fortress built by Henry VIII. To the southwest, Trebah Garden has subtropical plants.

Pointe-à-Pitre is a city on the island of Grande-Terre, in Guadeloupe, a French-governed archipelago in the Caribbean. It’s known for its lively markets, like the Marché de la Darse, where fishermen sell their catch from boats at the harbor. Cafes and colonial homes cluster around the grassy Place de la Victoire.
