L'Anse à l'Âne

L'Anse à l'Âne is a long, postcard-perfect crescent of white sand on Martinique's sheltered Caribbean coast, nestled between Pointe du Bout and Les Anses d'Arlet in the commune of Les Trois-Îlets. Its calm turquoise waters face the tiny Îlet à Ramiers and the mouth of Fort-de-France Bay, making it one of the island's most scenic and swimmable beaches. At 400 meters, the beach offers plenty of space, lined with hotels and small seaside restaurants where you can eat fresh local flavors with your feet in the sand. A maritime shuttle connects L'Anse à l'Âne directly to Fort-de-France throughout the day, and a hiking trail along the right side of the cove leads to neighboring Anse Mitan with panoramic bay views.
