Baie Longue (Long Bay)
Baie Longue (Long Bay) Review
Though it extends over the French Lowlands, from the cliff at La Samanna to La Pointe des Canniers, the island's longest beach has no facilities or vendors. It's the perfect place for a romantic walk, but be warned that car break-ins are a particular problem here. To get here, take National Road 7 south of Marigot. Baie Longue Rd. is the first entrance to the beach. It's worth it to splurge for lunch or a sunset cocktail at the elegant La Samanna. Amenities: none. Best for: solitude; walking.
- Address: Baie Longue, 97150
- Location: St. Martin
