Fodor's Expert Review Anse de Grand Cul de Sac

The shallow, reef-protected beach is nice for small children, fly-fishermen, kayakers, and windsurfers—and for the amusing frigate birds that dive-bomb the water fishing for their lunch. You needn't do your own fishing; you can have a wonderful lunch at one of the excellent restaurants nearby and use their lounge chairs for the afternoon. You may see some turtles in the shallow water. After storms the water may be a bit murky. Amenities: food and drink; parking (no fee); toilets; water sports. Best for: swimming; walking.
