\"Baie
La Baie des Saintes, Terre de Haut<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/p>\n

La baie des Saintes<\/h2>\n

2 of the islands are populated:\u00a0Terre-de-Haut and Terre-de-Bas. It is worth a trip there!\u00a0Jump onto the ferry leaving from the Capital Point a Pitre, St Francois or Trois Rivieres.<\/p>\n

\"Le
Sp\u00e9cialit\u00e9 Saintoise : le tourment d’amour<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Le tourment d’amour<\/h2>\n

A quick boat trip and you will reach the wharf where the Tourment d\u2019Amour\u00a0is offering you the local delicacy of the island: a cute little pie made of sponge cake with shredded coconut, a pinch of lime zest, a touch of vanilla and a taste of cinnamon sprinkle. The recipe came from the tradition of the fishermen wives preparing daily this delicacy for their husbands coming back from work after a long day of labor at sea, giving them a taste of home, sweet home<\/p>\n

Terre-de-Haut island is a paradise where no cars are allowed (except electric cars); you can walk all over the island or rent a bicycle or mini scooter to discover the island.<\/p>\n

\"Vue
Scenic view onto les Saintes from Fort Napol\u00e9on (Napoleon Fortress)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Napoleon Fortress<\/h2>\n

Napoleon fortress, the only fortress where we ever heard a gun shot! Fort Napoleon was mostly used as a jail then was converted into a museum dedicated to the lifestyle of the islanders. Surrounding the fort, you will be able to walk through the botanical garden following the custom guard path where the vigils were protecting the island and looking for invaders and smugglers.<\/p>\n

On the top, a breathtaking view overlooking the island of Cabrit holding the vestige of the Josephine fortress, but also the Guadeloupe islands, Dominica and Marie Galante islands.<\/p>\n

\"Maison
Maison bateau d’Adolphe Catan<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The Boat house d\u2019Adolphe Catan<\/em><\/h2>\n

An interesting construction of a house shaped as a boat that was built by Guadeloupian photographer Adolphe Catan in 1942. The building was donated to the town of Terre-de-Haut as a residence for the doctors in the islands in 1955.<\/p>\n

\"Plage
Terre de Haut – Plage de Pompierre<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Pompierre beach<\/h2>\n

Probably the best beach in the island. Pompierre beach is naturally protected by a rocky barrier which provides a quiet beach perfect for swimming with family and kids. 1500 feet of white sand beach with shade areas provided by the coconut trees and the Paletuvier trees along the beach. It is also the favorite beach for the local iguanas and they will come to you as they are used to share the beach with humans.<\/p>\n

\"Le
Le Pain de Sure – Les Saintes<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The famous sugar loaf<\/h2>\n

Famous beach fitting perfectly in a postcard moment, this is a landmark in the island! It will take you about 45 minutes walking to reach this famous location unless you rent a boat and reach the beach from the ocean. Ideal location for snorkeling with lots of colored fishes and smashing corals, a lot of local sailors Anker nearby this beach for a day to relax.<\/p>\n

\"Plage
Wild beach – Les Saintes<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Wild Crawen bay<\/h2>\n

Another dream location is Crawen, bay, a little wild beach far away from the town where you will feel like Robin Crusoe on his deserted island. This area is a great spot for snorkeling with a large variety of fishes and magnificent corals. Wait for the sunset before you leave as it is one of the best in the island.<\/p>\n

But there is more to Terre-de-Haut with lots of charming little beaches like Anse Rodrigue or\u00a0Anse du Figuier\u00a0for example.<\/p>\n

\"D\u00e9barcad\u00e8re
Arriv\u00e9e \u00e0 Terre de Haut, Les Saintes<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Take your time to discover the island<\/h2>\n

Ideally, you will need 2 days to truly embrace the island life at Terre-de-Haut; it will give you enough time to discover all the magic corners of the island, explore the villages with their colorful architecture, meet with the fisherman and the local market and enjoy the island lifestyle.<\/p>\n
