Be careful when walking along or crossing the road (beware of traffic).
Do not go near the edge of the cliffs: risk of collapse.

NB: Be careful: there is a lot of sargasse (brown algae) in the lagoon at Porte d'Enfer.

As Guadeloupe is prone to natural risks, extra care should be taken in this natural environment. For the benefit of all hikers, responsible behaviour is very important.
Please note: the parking and swimming areas are not supervised.
