Guadeloupe is sometimes represented by a banner of the arms of the island's main town, Pointe-à-Pitre. The flag features, on a black or red background a yellow sun and a green sugar cane, and a blue stripe charged with yellow fleurs-de-lis on the top.
The flag appears to be used for touristic purpose only.
