Can you imagine 5000 passengers leaving the ship? Fortunately I am for MSC “gold” member and I have priority. At 9.45 am I was already ashore. No control (it is France here) but the windmill- style port gate work so slooowly!
After the gate we started walk to the little public ferry carrying people across the bay – to Anse Mitan, where I booked accommodation for 3 nights. Ferry costs 7 euro one way, 9 euro retour. You have to buy ticket on the city bus stop nearby. Card payment only! It is worth to pay 7 euro just for the view of the Martinique from the ferry! But landing is not in Anse Mitan, but 1300 m away in Point du Bout. The walk to the pension was not long but terrible in the heat with all our luggage. I was waiting for the owner more than an hour to get a key. Let’s have a rest!
