User reviews

"This beach in Guadeloupe is absolutely stunning. To get there, it's best to avoid following Google Maps and instead head towards the city. Once you reach the end of the street, take a right and you'll find a public parking lot. From there, it's just a short 3-4 minute walk to the beach, which boasts gorgeous golden sand."
