A day in Les Saintes – holiday version 🌴

Relaxing program in Terre-de-Haut: beaches, snorkeling, island tour, and local delicacies.

Stress-free • Ideal for a day

Morning

Start early to enjoy the clear waters and avoid the crowds.

⛵ Arriving in the village

Of course, start by picking up your golf cart.

Only the driver needs to go. For the others, relax with a coffee or fresh juice at the port or next to the Town Hall and enjoy the colors of the village.

🐠 Sugar Loaf Beach (snorkeling)

  • Early in the morning, the water is translucent and there are few people. This is one of the most beautiful snorkeling spots in Les Saintes: tropical fish, coral, and turtles if you're lucky.
  • Ideal between 8:30 a.m. and 10:30 a.m. for peace and quiet.

Late morning

🏖️ Head to Pompierre Beach for swimming and sunbathing

  • Large bay protected by a barrier of rocks, perfect for swimming, sunbathing under the coconut trees, and watching the iguanas wandering around.
  • Perfect for a long, leisurely swim.
  • Be careful, at certain times of the year there may be sargassum.

Another option is Fort Napoléon for a bit of history.

  • Your golf cart will take you all the way high, at the foot of the Fort.

Lunch

🍽️ Seaside restaurant in the village

  • There are many restaurants on the main street.
  • Try the grilled lobster or a sea bream.
  • For dessert: the tourment d'amour, an iconic sweet treat from Les Saintes.

Afternoon

🛵 Island Tour

  • Anse Crawen: wild, great for snorkeling if the sea is calm.
  • Grande Anse: no swimming (swell), but superb for a photo shoot.

📸 Panorama Stops

  • Viewpoints over the bay — don't hesitate to stop as many times as you can.
  • Small, secluded beaches for a last dip.

End of the Day

🍹 Ice cream, cocktail, or rum punch in the village

Enjoy a last moment overlooking the bay, then stroll through the narrow streets for a souvenir (a model schooner, typical clothing from Les Saintes).
