(PiP = localisation)

La Pointe des Châteaux est une péninsule remarquable située à l’extrémité Est de l'île de Grande-Terre, en Guadeloupe, à 45 km de Pointe-à-pitre et à 11 km de Saint-François, commune à laquelle elle est rattachée. Constituée d’une large bande littorale balayée par des vents souvent violents, la pointe des Châteaux se distingue par ses aiguillons, surgissant de l'océan, reliques d'une falaise érodée par les vagues et les embruns, et qui n'abrite plus qu'une faune et une flore rares, dont certaines espèces endémiques.
Son point culminant offre un vaste panorama sur la Grande-Terre et, si le temps le permet, sur l'île de la Désirade, qui jaillit à 8 km seulement au large dans l'Océan Atlantique.

The Pointe des Châteaux is a remarkable peninsula located at the eastern end of the island of Grande-Terre, in Guadeloupe, 45 km from Pointe-à-pitre and 11 km from Saint-François, to which it is attached. Consisting of a wide coastal strip swept by often violent winds, the Pointe des Châteaux is distinguished by its stings, rising from the ocean, relics of a cliff eroded by waves and sea spray, and which now only shelters rare fauna and flora, including some endemic species.
Its highest point offers a vast panoramic view of Grande-Terre and, if the weather permits, of the island of Désirade, which springs only 8 km offshore in the Atlantic Ocean.

Descriptif en PIP.

Ciceron Passage (PIP translation)

The passage Ciceron takes its name from Mr Adolphe CICERON (1853-1928), notary, senator and president of the General Council of Guadeloupe.
His political career (1885-1912) was marked mainly by his activism for the assimilation of the colonies to the French departments and his fight against electoral fraud.
Ciceron Passage begins at Cours Nolivos Street, crosses Pitat, Baudot, Peynier streets and ends at Perrinon Street. It is one of the first pedestrian streets in Basse-Terre. It covers a ravine that rises from the heights of Saint-Claude.
From 1979 to 1990, this passage was used as a shopping mall for tourist souvenirs. After being closed for many years, it reopened in 2007.

At the initiative of Mrs Lucette Michaux-Chevry, Senator and Mayor of Basse-Terre, the Ciceron Passage was restored, redeveloped into an artisanal zone and inaugurated on 24 April 2010, in the presence of Mr Jean Fabre, Prefect of the Guadeloupe Region.
