Guadeloupe - Maps of the World

The two distinct islands of Guadeloupe, Grande-Terre and Basse-Terre form the shape of a butterfly spreading its wings into the Caribbean Sea and the Atlantic Ocean. The eastern wing, Grande-Terre is the economic centre of the island, assembling ports, airports and industrial zones around its capital, Pointe-a-Pitre, and vast beaches of white sand and sugarcane plantations on the rest of its 590 km2. Basse-Terre, the west wing (848 km2) is of a more untamed and authentic nature, with a landscape full of hills and a rather wet climate.
