Port Louis

Continuing northwest along the coast from Petit Canal, you come to Port Louis, well known for its beautiful beach, Anse du Souffleur, which lacks facilities. We like it best in spring, when the brilliant white sand is effectively shown off against the flaming red poinciana. During the week, the beach is an especially quiet spot. The little port town, though, has some good restaurants.

Anse-Bertrand

About 8km (5 miles) from Port Louis is Anse-Bertrand, the northernmost village of Guadeloupe. What is now a fishing village was the last refuge of the Carib tribes, and a reserve was once created here. Everything now, however, is sleepy.
