French Guiana Holidays
Although French Guiana is officially part of France (it even has the Euro as its official currency) - it’s hard to think of two places more different! Composed mainly of tropical rainforests and home to a Creole community, this is certainly not the France you know.A French Guiana holiday would not be complete without a visit to Saint Laurent du Maroni for it’s fascinating but tragic history as a 19th Century penal colony and the nearby Plage les Hattes which is home to nesting turtles from March to August.One of the most surprising sights is the Guiana Space Centre, a major European spaceport and home to regular launches for space missions for the EU.If you’ve come this far, you’ll undoubtedly visit Cayenne – French Guiana’s capital on a tour of the country. Home to an amazing array of cultures, it’s an intriguing place to spend a couple of days to get to know the country’s people and their traditions.
