Between the Lesser Antilles - Dominica and Antigua - lies an archipelago of breathtaking beauty called Guadeloupe, which consists of five atolls - Grande-Terre, Basse-Terre, Marie-Galant, Les Saintes and Desirades - closely linked by a ferry system. Today, Guadeloupe is an overseas region of France in the Caribbean and combines a developed European infrastructure with an original Caribbean cultural heritage. Until the discovery of the island by H. Columbus, the atolls were inhabited by Carib Indians who drove out the peaceful aboriginal tribe of fishermen, the Arawaks. They called their delightful new home "the island of beautiful waters". During his second voyage across the Atlantic Ocean, the Spaniard Columbus was the first European to enter the Caribbean Sea, where, among other islands, in 1493 he discovered a group of five atolls, which he named after the deeply revered Catholic monastery of Santa Maria de Guadalupe de Extremadura (Maria of Guadalupe in Esmadura). Spanish colonizers never had economic or political influence over the islands they discovered in this part of the Atlantic.
