The state is constituted by a great island, which is the more Oriental of the small Antilles. The territory is almost entirely level and verdant, but it is strongly also urbanized, in fact the density of the population is tall. We are in the Caribbean and therefore it is almost natural that the sea is very beautiful, the beaches are white and hem of palms, the tourism is very developed and the receptive structures are very good.
