Activity description
Meet the beautiful turtles living in Martinique's waters during a 3 hours snorkeling trip in Les Trois-Îlets!
In Martinique, the sea area stretching from Les Trois-Îlets to Anses-d'Arlet is known to be home to turtles that are quite easy to encounter, especially if you know the right spots. That's why Espace Plongée Martinique offers you to go out to sea with its team in order to see the turtles by snorkeling from Les Trois-Îlets on 1 or 2 sites they know!
You will board one of the 2 boats of the center to sail to Les Anses-d'Arlet, towards a first snorkeling spot with turtles in Martinique. As these marine animals remain wild, it is not 100% certain that you will be able to meet them, but the Espace Plongée Martinique team knows where the chances of seeing them are highest. You just have to trust them, put on your fins, mask and snorkel, and you will surely be able to meet the most seen turtle in Martinique, the green turtle!
A calm animal, it is very easy to approach it gently, and it can even be curious. You will be able to swim with the turtles between Les Trois-Îlets and Les Anses-d'Arlet without difficulty, and spend a moment out of time admiring them moving slowly under water.
If you are in the south-west of Martinique and you wish to experience magical moments, do not hesitate to join the team of Espace Plongée Martinique to swim with the turtles between Les Trois-Îlets and Les Anses-d'Arlet!
