Not to be missed: visit the whale lighthouse, the bell tower of St Martin, the goat farm and the soap factory in Loix (not to be missed... the staff is very friendly). Walk on the "donkeys in panties" in St Martin, go by boat to see Fort Boyard. Its magnificent beaches, the salt pans and lots of other things to visit... it's a magnificent island and advice brought your bikes (cycle path everywhere so very convenient for travel: it's an island by bike) but it also runs very well by car.
