More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You push off from Rodney Bay as the marina settles behind you, ropes slipping free and the catamaran taking a steady pace north. Salt stings the air; the hull hums, and the open bar eases the first hour as islands slip past the rail. By mid-morning the coastline of Martinique appears—sandy coves, forested ridges and colorful villages that promise a day of exploration.
