Why Martinique Shipyard?

Your next technical stop, within the Caribbean.

For a vessel operating in the Caribbean, choosing a shipyard also means considering the journey to get there, the facilities available and the people who will organise the work.

Based in Fort-de-France, Martinique Shipyard brings together a 200 m dry dock, 350 m of quay and a 750 m² mechanical workshop. Yard teams and specialist partners support scheduled maintenance, refit and unexpected repairs, with a dedicated project manager coordinating your vessel’s stay.
