This is a geologically unstable island. Slaves, when emancipated, moved into the volcanic craters where they still live. This is called the amphitheater by locals (photo below). The island is very clean, very beautiful and very French.
Our excursion climbing to the edge of the crater over crazy, narrow hairpin and scary roads on a large tour bus was nonetheless spectacular.
The flora was absolutely gorgeous and reminded us of Kauai, the garden isle of Hawaii. It is often compared to Hawaii because of it's active volcano.
