Guadeloupe Adeli Veronica February 17, 2011

Introduction Guadeloupe is located in the Caribbean Islands in the Caribbean sea. Guadeloupe's first inhabitants were Arawak Indians. Then from there the Spanish discovered it, but they never managed to colonize the island, Guadeloupe became an important stopping place for ships in the region during the 16 th century. The French were the first to colonize the island. Then the English took control for a short while before the French got it back. Guadeloupe’s two main islands look like the wings of a butterfly and are joined together by a mangrove swamp. This is what makes them popular. Guadeloupe mixes the best of France – a fully modern infrastructure and fantastic food – with a local culture that people here are proud of and want to share.
