  • Caribbean ↗Several islands (Turks and Caicos above all, also the Bahamas and Jamaica) jail visitors for a single stray bullet or cartridge in their luggage; empty every bag and pocket before you pack.
  • Caribbean ↗From August to October keep a free last day before your flight home and check the national hurricane centre daily; airports close when a named storm approaches.
  • Caribbean ↗Wearing camouflage clothing is illegal for civilians in several islands, including Barbados, Antigua, Saint Lucia, Saint Vincent, Grenada, Dominica, Trinidad and Tobago and Jamaica; leave it at home, children's clothes included.
  • Martinique ↗Entry follows French rules for overseas departments, which can differ from mainland France and the Schengen area: a Schengen visa alone is not valid unless it is endorsed for Martinique. Check France-Visas for your passport.
  • Martinique ↗Sargassum seaweed can pile up on some Atlantic-facing beaches, mainly in spring and summer: check conditions before booking a beach base.
  • Martinique ↗Do not touch or shelter under manchineel trees (often marked with red paint): the sap and fruit are toxic.
  • Fort-de-France area ↗Ferries to the southern shore run on a set daily schedule: check the last return before you cross.
  • Fort-de-France ↗Many shops and restaurants in the centre close at midday and on Sundays: check hours before you plan a lunch.
  • Fort-de-France ↗During Carnival (dates move with Easter) the centre closes to cars and many shops shut on parade days: plan a different route.
