Anse a Jacques beach

Anse a Jacques is a small beach in an enclosed bay in the south of Grande Terre island, Guadeloupe. There are many trees and usually not many people. There are beautiful hills around with hiking trail. Unfortunately, swimming is rather uncomfortable, as the bottom is mostly rocky. It is also better to walk in shoes, when you are at the coastline. Shore and seabed: sand, stones. [edit]
