Anse a l'Eau beach

Anse a l'Eau is a small beach in the east of Grande Terre island, Guadeloupe. During the high season, this is a great spot in an enclosed bay - with white sand, palms and snorkeling on the rocks. But in the summer half of the year, the entire coastline is covered with algae, - as well as everywhere in the east of Guadeloupe. Shore and seabed: sand, stones. [edit]
