Famous for its pristine natural landscape, this coastal town is home to Martinique's most famous beaches, Plage des Salines and Pointe Marin, where white sandy beaches and palm-fringed lagoons attract many visitors.
Backed by lush hills and facing the Atlantic Ocean, Santa Ana's economy is based on traditional Creole culture, fishing and agriculture. Visitors can explore the colorful central market, sample fresh coconuts and grilled fish, or go flamingo spotting in the nearby Salina salt flats.
