Lush vegetation, mountainous with a rich ecosystem and the home of La Soufriere volcano. Marie Galante - Authentic! The largest of the islands, the place where rum reigns and sandy beaches beckon Consisting of nine islands, two of which are inhabited (Terre de Haut and Terre de Bas), the bays are beautiful and the food is delightful. Grande Terre - Fascinating! Beautiful beaches, resorts and restaurants adorn this island of rich heritage. La Désirade - Pristine! Relatively untouched with quiet simplicity, lovely beaches and spectacular coral reefs.
