September in Martinique: slow down, recharge, rediscover

Updated : 09/09/2025

Activities & Sports

After two months of excitement - crowded beaches, open-air concerts, sports competitions and children's laughter - September marks a pause. A return to oneself. A new tempo. In Martinique, this special month is often one of rediscovered calm, unexpected encounters and gentler explorations. As the high season draws to a close, the island continues to vibrate... at its own pace. So how about letting yourself be carried away by this more intimate Martinique? Follow us on a sensitive journey, far from the hustle and bustle, with eyes wide open and a light heart.

What's the weather like in Martinique in September?

Gentle, complicit weather

Between 26 and 30°C, a few welcome tropical showers, and a more breathable atmosphere. Perfect for alternating sea bathing, siestas in the shade and morning hikes. All you need to do is keep an eye on the weather, plan carefully, and let daylight be your guide.

What to do in Martinique in September?

Beaches (almost) for yourself

Imagine: a deserted cove at sunrise, an oily sea, pelicans diving... Welcome to Anse Dufour, l'Anse Noire, the Anse Couleuvre or the Salines, September versions. No more touch-and-go towels. Here, silence is king and every swim becomes a meditation. Our favorite times: early morning to catch the first rays, or late afternoon when the sky merges with the sea.

Mindful hiking
Martinique abounds with trails, but in September, we rediscover them in a different way:

Le Morne Larcher at dawn,
La Presqu'île de la Caravelle at dusk,
The Canal des Esclaves, or the lush traces of Fonds-Saint-Denis...

Humidity makes the vegetation greener, the waterfalls more generous, and the forest more sonorous. A word of advice? Favour milder days, and equip yourself with non-slip shoes: here, every step is an immersion.

Well-being in nature... or at home

September is also the time to take care of yourself. Massages, treatments with local oils...the island is full of confidential addresses where you can really recharge your batteries in the heart of nature. And if you prefer to stay in your own cocoon, some institutes offer massages at home, by the pool or on the terrace. Simple luxury, suspended moments.

Natur'o Péyi Le carbet

Getting back into shape

Treat yourself to a truly exceptional moment of escape in the heart of nature. Let yourself be lulled by the gentle melody of the water and enveloped by the energies of Mother Nature during an energetic well-being massage. Enjoy the benefits of an Ayurvedic massage. The abhyanga massage is an Ayurvedic massage that is both invigorating and enveloping. No part of the body is overlooked, from the scalp to the toes, including the fingers and palms, areas where a great deal of tension accumulates, improving the circulation of body fluids, digestion and the functioning of the nervous system. It also works on the joints and muscle tone. At the end of this moment of relaxation and revitalisation of the spirit, you can enjoy a succulent brunch for the pleasure of your taste buds. For more information, please contact me on 0696 73 77 74. I look forward to seeing you soon, Marc from Natur'o Péyi.

Cultural activities to do in Martinique in September

(Re)discover culture, in peace and quiet

Museums and heritage sites regain their serenity. We take our time, ask questions, listen to the stories of a passionate guide...
In September, culture is experienced at human level, in an atmosphere conducive to reflection and transmission.

La Savane Des Esclaves Les trois-ilets

In a 3-hectare park, discover 400 years of Martinique's history: a reconstruction of an Amerindian village, a visit to the Rue Case-Nègres illustrating the way slaves lived in their dwellings, and finally the way people lived in the countryside after abolition until 1960. There are 25 traditional huts, 26 bilingual panels, a Creole garden and a medicinal garden to discover during your visit. A video of Gilbert Larose, the creator, explains the history of Martinique and what he has achieved. The tour is self-guided at your own pace, with a map provided and plenty of bilingual French/English signage.

Habitation Clement Le françois

Distillery
Tasting

Located in the heart of the sugar cane plantations, Habitation Clément now houses the historic headquarters of Clément rums, a magnificent botanical garden and the Clément Foundation for the promotion of Caribbean arts, making it one of Martinique's major cultural and heritage sites. It is characterised by the maintenance of its industrial activity, i.e. the cultivation of sugar cane and the ageing and preparation of rum. This dual activity, industrial and cultural, makes it little more than a business or a museum.

Fort Saint Louis Fort-de-france

Historic sites & monuments

With an uninterrupted view over the bay of Fort de France and its port, Fort Saint Louis is a must-see if you want to explore the capital's history in greater depth. Come and discover the secrets of this 17th-century fortress, one of the best preserved in the Caribbean, while enjoying an exceptional panorama. Old stone enthusiasts, the curious in search of new discoveries, young and old explorers alike are invited to follow the guides along the paths of the Vauban-style citadel.

Mémorial De La Catastrophe De 1902 - Musée Frank A. Perret Saint-pierre

Discovering the history of the town of St-Pierre also means visiting its places of remembrance. The MEMORIAL OF THE 1902 CATASTROPHE is one such place. 1902 resonates in the hearts of Piritins as the year when time stood still, as the end and the beginning of a new era. A former colonial town, also known as "Little Paris", ST-PIERRE enjoyed its heyday in the 19th century. Its influence grew with the ever-increasing trade in goods. On 5 May 1902, Montagne Pelée erupted with an unparalleled fury, levelling the town with a thick cloud of flames. The tragedy lifted a veil of nostalgia that will forever hang over the fallen capital. Immerse yourself in the catastrophe at close quarters thanks to the Frank A. PERRET Museum, and retrace its history through eyewitness accounts, photographic documents, faces, names and relics...

European Heritage Days in September

Heritage Days: exploring the invisible (September 19-20-21)

Every year, places that are usually closed open their doors to the public. Archives, hidden gardens, old houses, symbolic buildings...These three days are a unique window on the island's history and memory. To be experienced alone, with family or friends. Because Martinique's culture deserves to be experienced from the inside.

September: Martinique in its most authentic version and rediscover the island as never before.
