Guadeloupe Maps

Guadeloupe's maps make the contrast between its two main islands immediately visible. Basse-Terre is volcanic and mountainous, while Grande-Terre is lower and more open. The narrow Rivière Salée separates them at the centre of the familiar butterfly shape.

The western island of Basse-Terre rises steeply to La Soufrière at 1,467 m. Grande-Terre is much lower, which helps explain the strong contrast in rainfall, vegetation and road character.

The satellite view is useful for understanding the coastline, the Rivière Salée and the relationship between the two main islands. Use a current navigation map as well when planning road journeys, trail access or ferry terminals.
