Rules in force · 6Pavements are narrow and uneven
  • Guadeloupe ↗Entry follows French rules for overseas departments, which can differ from mainland France and the Schengen area: check official French sources for your passport.
  • Guadeloupe ↗Sargassum seaweed can pile up on some beaches, mainly in spring and summer: check conditions before booking a beach base.
  • Guadeloupe ↗La Soufrière is an active volcano: check the alert level and trail status before hiking.
  • Grande-Terre ↗Avoid driving across the Pointe-à-Pitre area at about 06:30–08:30 and 16:00–18:30: traffic is heavy.
  • Pointe-à-Pitre ↗The centre empties after dark and on Sundays: eat early, take a taxi door to door in the evening and do not wander the back streets.
  • Pointe-à-Pitre ↗Pavements are narrow and uneven: bags go from the car to the door, never on a walk.
