Martinique'teki doğal güzellikler

Natural Wonders

Martinique's terrain is defined by volcanic activity and tropical rainforests. This list highlights the island's diverse topography, featuring the towering peaks of the Pitons du Carbet and the rugged slopes of Montagne du Vauclin. It includes dramatic landmarks like the 120-meter Cascade de la rivière Couleuvre and the hidden river pools of Gorges de la Falaise. These sites showcase unique geological formations, from the arid, cactus-dotted landscape of Morne des Pétrifications to the lush, fern-filled ravines of the northern interior.
