To better prepare your holidays and travel in Guadeloupe Basse Terre
Coming to Guadeloupe by plane...
The plane is the most common means of transport to arrive in Guadeloupe.
The airport -Pôle Caraïbes- is in Point à Pitre. The code for this airport is: PTP
It is an international airport and many airlines arrive there, especially from France, but also from Martinique, Guyana, Saint Martin, Saint Barth, etc.
Air Caraïbes, Air France and Corsaire are the main airlines that depart from France, Orly (ORY) or Roissy-Charles De Gaulle (CDG) and the islands around us.
Do a Google search for "Paris-Guadeloupe flights" and you'll get a multitude of results. If you search for Belgium-Guadeloupe, you'll find many flight + train options (with the TGV from Brussels Midi to Roissy).
to your research...
Coming by boat...
If you are coming by shuttle from other islands or by cruise ship...
the port is also in Point à Pitre, it is the port of Bergevin, also used for shuttles to Marie-Galante and other islands.
Rental car
Once you arrive at the airport or the port of Bergevin, you will certainly need a car because without a car, you risk not knowing how to visit our beautiful island.
Of course, there are also taxis, which can sometimes be quite expensive...
Hitchhiking is also very common on the island because public transport doesn't run all the time, so it's not so easy...
In short, you will still find what you are looking for on Google
Don't forget, car rental companies try to keep their prices as low as possible, so with "basic" cars and the least powerful engine possible, you will often have to climb the hills of Basse-Terre in second gear if not first...
I don't gain anything from it, but I recommend:
For boats ... either you come sailing or in a liner ...
We do not have much information on this, except that the port is in Point a Pitre too ...
It has already happened that a sailboat arrives in front of us, throws
the anchor and landed his dinky, okay, less convenient, especially that sleeping on his boat is more than nice ...
