Death in Paradise: Guadeloupe as Saint Marie

Honoré is the main town of Saint Marie, and in real life it is Deshaies, a commune on the coast of Guadeloupe. In the show the town has a leisure marina, a market, bars and restaurants, as well as the police station. The series is filmed mainly in Deshaies, and the annual shoots in Guadeloupe run from April to August, so this is the place to start before looking for the other stops.

Precisión del lugar: Honoré does not exist; the pin marks Deshaies, the real commune that doubles for it.

Para el visitante: Deshaies is an open village with a harbour and a sea-front; no booking is needed.

The Honoré police station is the base of the Detective Inspector, whose Commissioner in turn reports to the Chief Commissioner in Jamaica. In real life the set is the presbytery attached to the church of St Peter and St Paul in Deshaies, and the priest's office appears as the incident room. The pin marks the church area rather than an exact door. It belongs to a parish, so look from outside.

Precisión del lugar: The source names the presbytery by the church of St Peter and St Paul; the pin was looked up on the church, not the presbytery door.

The detective inspector's home on the beach is a fixed part of the series. It is filmed at La Perle beach, near Deshaies, where the bungalow of the successive chief inspectors stands. The pin marks the beach as a whole, not the bungalow itself, because the sources name the beach but give no exact spot for the house on it.

Precisión del lugar: Sources name La Perle beach but not the exact spot of the bungalow.

Catherine's bar is played in real life by a restaurant in Deshaies called La Madras. The village is small, so you can look for it after seeing the church and the sea-front. No pin is given because the source names the restaurant but gives no address, so ask locally rather than relying on the map.

Precisión del lugar: The source names the restaurant but not its address, so this stop has no pin.

Series 3, episode 7 is largely set on a small, privately owned islet just off Saint Marie. The episode was actually filmed on Kahouanne, an uninhabited islet that belongs to the commune of Deshaies and lies about 1,500 metres from its coast.
