Frequently Asked Questions

Tenders come alongside in the middle of the village. Everything else is on foot or by rented scooter: the island is five kilometres long and has almost no cars.
Yes, near the jetty: two-wheelers and golf carts are available, licence required. Along with walking, it is how people get around.
A coconut tart eaten warm. Tradition holds that sailors' wives baked them for the fleet's return; sellers offer them the moment the tenders arrive, basket on the arm.
A museum devoted to the archipelago, traditional fishing and the Battle of the Saintes, plus a dry garden of cactus and agave where the iguanas pose willingly. From the ramparts the view takes in the whole bay — one of the most photographed panoramas in the French Antilles.
About twenty minutes uphill from the village, on the hill to the north. The fort, rebuilt in the 19th century, never fired a shot in anger.
At Anse de Pompierre, twenty-five minutes' walk east: a horseshoe of sand sheltered by islets, where the water stays shallow for tens of metres. Ideal for children.
Yes, the manchineel trees marked with red paint along the shore. They are toxic: do not shelter under them and do not picnic at their base, especially not in rain.
In the cove at the foot of the Pain de Sucre, to the southwest: water thick with trumpetfish and fire coral, reached by a path down from the road.
The highest point of Les Saintes, at 309 metres. A concrete track climbs it in about an hour to an old watchtower. From the top, Dominica closes the horizon to the south and Guadeloupe to the north.
The euro. Bring cash for the small shops, and water and a hat for the exposed trails, above all the Chameau.
