Château Dubuc

Château Dubuc is a plantation ruin site on the Caravelle Peninsula overlooking the Atlantic Ocean. The remains include stone foundations, walls, multiple storage buildings, and ancillary structures from the 18th century.

The plantation was established in 1721 and produced sugar, coffee, and cocoa for export to France. The estate became a major production center during the colonial period in Martinique.

The site bears the name of a French colonist, and its ruins reveal how plantations were organized during that era. Visitors can see the remains of storage facilities and work buildings that speak to daily production and trade.

The site is accessible and there are paths to explore the various ruins throughout the grounds. Wear sturdy shoes since the terrain is uneven and vegetation can be thick in places.

The site contains oversized warehouses and vaults that suggest the plantation may have been involved in illegal trading activities. These structures were unusually large for normal production and hint at a hidden history.
