Les Anses-d'Arlet, a Caribbean postcard of the South

3 min read

On the Caribbean coast, the village of Les Anses-d'Arlet lines up its colourful houses facing a glassy sea. Its pier reaching towards the church is one of Martinique's most famous images.

Grande Anse and its pier

The Grande Anse beach, framed by green hills, invites you to swim and laze about. The pier offers the village's iconic photo, with the bell tower of the Saint-Henri church in your sights.

Swimming with turtles

A few minutes away, Anse Dufour and Anse Noire rank among the island's best spots to observe green turtles and, sometimes, rays — fins on your feet.
