What do I need to know before moving to Le Robert?

"Before moving to Le Robert, expats should know that the official language is French, so it would be beneficial to learn or brush up on the language. The local currency is the Euro, and the cost of living can be high compared to other Caribbean islands. Le Robert is known for its beautiful beaches and outdoor activities, so prepare for a lifestyle that includes a lot of time in nature. The climate is tropical, with a rainy season from June to October and a dry season from November to May. Healthcare in Martinique is of a high standard, but it's recommended to have comprehensive health insurance. The island is also prone to hurricanes, so it's important to be prepared for potential natural disasters. The local cuisine is a blend of French and Creole influences, with seafood and locally grown fruits and vegetables being prominent. While crime rates are relatively low, it's still important to take standard precautions to ensure personal safety. Driving is on the right side of the road in Martinique, and having a car can be beneficial for getting around, especially in more rural areas. Finally, the pace of life in Le Robert is slower than in many Western countries, so patience and a relaxed attitude can go a long way," said another expat in Le Robert, Martinique.
