If you want a little more adrenaline, all you have to do is book water activities such as kayaking, paddleboarding, or even windsurfing and jet skiing.

Discovering Creole culture

A visit to Guadeloupe would not be complete without discovering the richness of its Creole culture. It is a real enrichment that it is truly wonderful to experience as a family.

To do this, we suggest that you embark on a journey through time. Throughout this journey, you will visit the island's colorful markets such as the one in Sainte-Anne, the Spice Market in Pointe-à-Pitre or the Darse Market in Basse-Terre. Come and enjoy traditional dishes such as chicken colombo or cod acras, for example.

Kids will also love learning about the island's fascinating history. To do this, we recommend visiting a few museums, such as the Camélia Costumes and Traditions Museum, located less than 10 minutes by car from the hotel.

Enjoy a family adventure in an amusement park

The island also has numerous theme parks for all tastes. With water parks, such as the KarucocoParc in Grande-Terre or the Tapeur outdoor adventure park, there is no shortage of options. You can let the children let off steam on the water slides or test their courage on tree-climbing courses. The Guadeloupe Zoo at Parc Des Mamelles is also a very popular activity for families.

So if you too want to discover the Islands of Guadeloupe in a fun and authentic way, you now have all the cards in hand to do so! Your stay promises to be incredible and what is certain is that the whole family will remember this adventure long after you return home.
