  • Favorite Thing: Visit the Isles de Salut to see the infamous prison islands made famous by the book and later the movie, Pappillon. It´s a beautiful setting and you can stay in the old cells or the modern hotel on the island. If you do choose to experience the cells, take a good mozzie net and hammock for a comfortable stay. See photo.

    General Tips: The European Space Centre
  • Tip Rating:
  • Favorite Thing: Visit the space centre. They give free 3 hour tours of the site and show you the rockets about to be launched. If you´re lucky you´ll time it so you see a launch. Call the office for info. Tours start at 07:45 or 13:45.
    The photo is the view of the actual mission control inside the visitors center.
