It should be Basse-Terre instead of Guadeloupe (I know it's not easy but...).

Well, I'll be blowed. All this time I thought Guadeloupe was one island. So, thanks to googlemaps, we see it's two: Basse-Terre, and Grande-Terre (which also appears in this quiz, separately). QM, if you think that turns that one into a real killer, maybe award a point for both islands if you type in "Guadeloupe"? If you can do it for Congo and Congo....

I was also thinking about giving both when typing Guadeloupe. After all, these are barely two islands... they are very close and only separated by a "salt river".

Actually, both answers are right. Historically, the island of Basse-Terre was first called Guadeloupe.

Now, Guadeloupe is used for the whole arquipelago.

Finished going through the map, and there was one missing answer. Took me a long time to notice Cozumel on the map.

I feel cheated by that, because I knew Guadeloupe wasn't one island, so I never tried it. I got Grand-Terre, and couldn't figure out why Basse-Terre wasn't working for the other part.

Let's go digging up an old topic:

Guadeloupe is the name of the whole archipelago so a choice should be made: either typing Guadeloupe validates 2 answers, or it is not accepted and the answers are Basse-Terre and Grande-Terre.

The big south-western island of the Guadeloupe archipelago is called "Basse-Terre"
