Situated to the east of the northern half of Carriacou, this 586-acre island completes the tri-island destination. Approximately 900 residents call this island home, with the majority sustaining their livelihoods through boat building and fishing. Petite Martinique, pronounced as Pitty-Mar-Ti-Neek, is perfect for relaxing, exploring and immersing yourself in the culture of the residents.

The island’s highest point, the Piton, standing at 750 feet, rewards adventure seekers with a thrilling hike and sweeping breathtaking views of the island and nearby Grenadine islands at the summit. This peak was also the location of the traditional maroon feast known as the ‘Sugaring of the Piton.’

The event usually takes place on the morning of Saint Patrick’s Day, March 17^th accompanied by a maroon to welcome rain and a good planting season. The tradition involves the pouring of rum and water on the spot on which the participants are gathered. This is referred to as ‘Libation’.

Additionally, the Petite Martinique Whitsuntide Regatta stands out as a signature festival, offering a unique blend of local boat racing, on-shore activities, and the warm hospitality of the island’s residents.

Petite Martinique is not only rich in culture but also blessed with exquisite beaches. Sanchez Beach is a haven for sailing, surfing, diving, kayaking, snorkeling, and fishing, while the serene Mang Beach provides an ideal setting for swimming and family picnics.
