Belle Mare Beach
Belle Mare
A long white sand beach and clear lagoon on the east coast, home to upscale resorts and well-known golf courses.
One of the most beautiful beaches on the east coast, its fine white sand stretches for several kilometers, and the lagoon shifts from light green to deep blue. The public beach section is free to enter, and locals come for picnics on weekends. Several high-end resorts and two well-known golf courses are clustered nearby, and water activities such as windsurfing, kayaking, and diving are available. Because it faces the trade winds, the wind is stronger here than on the west coast, and the waves are fresher, making summer especially comfortable. Near Poste Lafayette is a kitesurfing spot, and about 20 minutes south is the Trou d'Eau Douce ferry point for Deer Island.
