WHERE ARE WE

Imagine stepping onto a powder-soft white sand beach with swaying coconut palms, and a shimmering turquoise lagoon stretching toward the horizon. Plage du Bourg de Sainte-Anne is one of Guadeloupe’s most inviting beaches—and its charm goes far beyond its beauty.

Protected by a coral reef, the lagoon offers calm, shallow, crystal-clear water that is ideal for swimming, families, and snorkeling. The beach is regularly supervised during busy periods, with safety nets helping create a comfortable swimming environment.

What makes this beach especially appealing is its location. You’re steps from the heart of Sainte-Anne, with the colorful local market, shops, restaurants, snack stands, and vendors selling tropical treats such as freshly made coconut sorbet. Parking and basic facilities, including toilets, are available nearby, while natural shade from the palms provides a welcome escape from the Caribbean sun.

For cruise passengers, it’s also an easy shore excursion: the beach is roughly 21 km from Pointe-à-Pitre, home to Guadeloupe’s main cruise terminal—about a 25–40-minute drive, depending on traffic.

Come for the turquoise water, stay for the vibrant Creole atmosphere. Plage du Bourg is where a beach day becomes a taste of authentic Guadeloupe.

Restaurants, beach chair rentals, watersport activities and bathroom facilities.
