From December 8th to December 13th 2026
From 8 to 13 December 2026, the Raid des Alizés – Martinique 2025 will bring together 225 female adventurers over six days.
The participants from mainland France will meet at Paris-Orly airport before departing on Tuesday morning for Martinique Aimé Césaire international airport, where they will meet up with their West Indian counterparts after a nine-hour flight.
Once assembled, the competitors will be taken to their first base camp where they will be given their kit before an initial evening of adaptation.
On Wednesday, they will enjoy a ‘reconnaissance day’ and take part in a range of fun and sporting activities. In the evening, the first briefing will be conducted by the race director and the team manager, before the start of the major events the following day.
From Thursday to Saturday, competition will take centre stage on the island of flowers. Alongside the classic nature raid events (mountain biking, kayaking, running, etc.), teams will have the chance to discover a host of surprise activities inspired by the values of the Raid des Alizés – Martinique: surpassing oneself, respect for nature, sharing and solidarity. The activities and itinerary will be revealed to the participants at the last minute, so as to preserve an element of mystery and the unexpected throughout the adventure.
Over the course of the three days, the competitors will have the privilege of competing in natural and protected environments all over the island. In the evening, they will meet up at the ‘bivouac’, a village where they can share and discover Martinique’s culture, and recharge their batteries before the next day’s activities.
After the finals on Saturday, the teams will gather for the prize-giving evening in a top-of-the-range holiday club, where they will spend their last night and the day on Sunday. A moment of relaxation and a well-deserved rest for our adventurers after an unforgettable week.
Every year, we offer a free deferment of the return flight with our airline partner Corsair, so you can enjoy extra days to make the most of Martinique.
For this 2026 edition, the proposed returns have not yet been defined.
