The term French West Indies (Antilles françaises) refers to the four territories presently under French sovereignty in the Caribbean: the two overseas departments of Guadeloupe and Martinique, plus the two overseas collectivities of Saint Martin and Saint-Barthélemy. The Guadeloupe department includes both the island of Guadeloupe proper and the adjacent islands of Les Saintes, Marie-Galante and La Désirade. Living On A Boat in the French West Indies - One Woman's Transition To Living Onboard A Boat - By Jillian Simensky - The summers are filled with activity.

Starting the day off with a cup of coffee on the deck, feeding the ducks and swans that gather noisily at the waterline makes all the difference in dealing with the upcoming day at work. |
In addition, some of the islands of the present and former British West Indies were once ruled by France. On some of them, a French-based creole language is spoken. If you are interested in going to the naturist beaches, you'll find descriptions and photos at Naturist Beaches in the French West Indies . It is, after all, the French West Indies.

It is very difficult to write a balanced essay on driving on these islands. We may seem to come across as very negative about driving, but that we drive there every time we go. You should also know that we are writing this essay based on our experiences and our understanding of the rules of the road and meanings of signs. We do suggest caution, but do not let our cautions overwhelm you.Former French West Indian islands: Hispaniola (the former French colony, Saint-Domingue, was on the western third of the island -- now the country of Haiti)
