Hiking - From Anse à la Baie to à Anse à l'Eau
A perfect trail for a walk along the coast, with a breathtaking view over the ocean and ending at Anse à l'Eau, a haven of peace.
The trail features heat, sea, landscapes and fine sand.
At the car park, go down the stone steps with the guardrail to the bay.
When you have your feet in the sand, head to the left to take the very steep steps up to the chapel.
At the chapel, turn right into the undergrowth. There is a gentle slope down to the coast.
Walk alongside the coast between the thickets, on the dirt track and the sand.
Just before arriving at Anse à l'Eau the trail enters a manchineel wood.
The end of the trail is at the other side of the beach, near a bench looking out to sea.
You can continue the path to the town of Le Moule, if you're feeling energetic (see "Moule coastal trail").
NB: this is a non-circular trail, so you should leave a car at the end of the trail (in L'Anse à l'Eau).
Don't forget to take a hat and suncream, because there is very little shade on this trail.
Please note, the yellow markings are quite sparse, but you can't get lost. You walk along the coast all the way.
In this natural setting, you should be particularly careful and alert, since Guadeloupe is subject to natural risks. It is vital to act in a responsible way, so that everyone can enjoy the hike!
Please note: unsupervised car parks and swimming.
