Friar's Bay

A small bay between Marigot and Grand Case, with beach restaurants loved by locals and calm water.

Friar's Bay lies north of Marigot and south of Grand Case. It is a crescent-shaped little bay with calm water, good for swimming. Two or three beach restaurants and bars popular with locals line the sand, and there is often music on weekends. A hillside path nearby leads on foot to the more remote Happy Bay. It has fewer visitors than Orient Bay, and the atmosphere is more relaxed.
