Frequently Asked Questions

Is Martinique a good destination for a dedicated golf vacation?

Honestly, no, not if you're looking to play multiple rounds at different courses. With only one course, Golf des Trois-Îlets, it's best viewed as a fantastic place to get one or two memorable rounds in while enjoying everything else the island offers. We recommend it for golfers who want a beautiful, challenging round as part of a broader Caribbean escape.

What's the best time of year to golf in Martinique?

You'll find the dry season, from December to May, offers the most reliable weather for golf. While it's still tropical and humid, you'll avoid the heavier rains of the wet season. We always suggest early morning tee times to beat the heat and enjoy the course at its freshest.

What can I expect from the single golf course in Martinique?

The Robert Trent Jones Sr.-designed Golf des Trois-Îlets is a classic, challenging layout with stunning views of the Caribbean Sea. You'll encounter tight fairways, strategic bunkers, and water hazards that demand precision. It's a well-maintained course that provides a genuine test of your game, so come prepared.

How does the cost of golfing in Martinique compare to other Caribbean islands?

Greens fees at Golf des Trois-Îlets are generally quite reasonable when stacked against many other premium Caribbean destinations. While not a budget destination overall, you'll find the golf portion of your trip offers good value for a quality experience. Factor in the cost of a rental car, as taxis can add up quickly.

What are the must-do activities in Martinique for golfers off the course?

Martinique truly shines beyond the fairways; we always tell friends to explore its rich culture and natural beauty. You absolutely must visit a rum distillery - Clément or Depaz are excellent choices - and spend time on the pristine beaches like Les Salines. Hiking in the volcanic north or exploring Fort-de-France's markets also makes for a perfect complement to your round.
