1 Reviews on “La Grande Anse”
La Grande Anse in Basse-Terre is a gorgeous anchorage and beach area near Trois-Rivières, known for its striking black volcanic sand and lively waves that draw surfers and bodyboarders. The beach’s unique landscape, dotted with tall coconut trees and flanked by dramatic views of Les Saintes islands, gives it a wild and untamed feel, especially with the strong surf and currents common here. While this makes it ideal for watersports, caution is advised for swimmers due to the powerful tides. Beyond its scenic appeal, Grande Anse holds ecological significance as a protected nesting site for sea turtles, meaning boats and beachgoers are encouraged to keep disturbance to a minimum to safeguard this rare natural event. The beach’s preservation status helps maintain its pristine beauty and serene atmosphere.
