Logbook
Day 1
You will meet a member of the Sun Sea team with whom you will meet your prestigious 43-foot Leopard Powercat motor catamaran
Embark on a cruise to discover the rums of Martinique!
At 5pm, you will embark for your first night on board. This evening, two options are available: you can spend the night at the Marina du Marin or at the Pointe Borgnèse anchorage.
Once moored, you can celebrate the beginning of this new adventure and enjoy your Aperitif Dinatoire basket composed by our prestigious partner. Creative products and recipes that honour local products and homemade drinks with Martinique flavours.
Day 2
This morning, you head towards the Atlantic coast of Martinique, towards “Le François” for the Extraordinary Experience proposed by the Distillery A1710.
Dive into the fascinating world of rum by observing all the steps of its manufacture. From the harvest of the organic cane field at the “Habitation du Simon”, through the pressing at the traditional mill, the distillation in our copper still “La Belle Aline” and the aging in the cellar, you will discover how A1710 rums are made.
The tour continues after a refreshing break in the shady park facing the “Ilets of François”, with a tasting of our great vintages in the living rooms of the main house, with its remarkable colonial architecture.
At noon, the “Table d’hôtes” of the “Maison de l’Ilet Oscar” welcomes you to (re)discover the local cuisine in an exceptional setting.
This afternoon, the famous Josephine’s Bathtub awaits you for a moment of relaxation!
This evening, you sleep at “Ilet Long”, a peaceful site perfect for relaxation and change of scenery.
Day 3
Today, discover the Clément house, a place of memory classified as a historical monument, during a guided tour. Discover the garden, a real open-air museum, permanently exhibiting works of art acquired by the Clément Foundation, as well as the 18th century house, restored and refurnished in its original style. This is a unique opportunity to immerse yourself in the art of tropical living and to discover the traditional architecture and furnishings of a large Creole house.
Then enjoy a unique Premium Old Rums Masterclass including a visit of the cellars with the cellar master, a private tasting and a food pairing in a privileged space with Claire-Marie K’Fée K’Nelle’s cooking.
Then head for the “Ilets du Robert”, several stops and swims are planned in the middle of this unique setting between “Ilets and Fonds Blancs”: at “Ilet la Grotte” and “Ilet Chancel” where you can visit the remains of an old pottery, a colony of endemic iguana and a splendid mangrove.
Day 4
This morning, wake up in the site of “Ilet Madame”, one of the most beautiful in Martinique!
After a moment of bathing, you take the direction of the peaceful and restful “Baie des Anglais” and the “Ilet Hardy” for a moment of relaxation and swimming.
Then head for the “Grande Anse des Salines”, one of the most beautiful beaches of Martinique. A real postcard with its white sand and coconut trees leaning over the sea!
At noon, you enjoy a delicious rum tasting lunch concocted by chef Caroline Girol: a unique and authentic sensory experience.
Then you can take the opportunity of this anchorage to go for a hike to the petrification savannah, a desert area where fossil trunks could once be seen, or for a last swim.
It is now 5:00 pm, your cruise is coming to an end. It’s time to take all those wonderful memories with you and meet up with a member of the Sun Sea team at the Marina du Marin.
