Grande Anse d'Arlet beach

Grande Anse d'Arlet is a large beach on the Caribbean coast of Martinique. The main problem is that, the coastal area is slightly overdeveloped. So you should arrive before the noon, when some free space under palms is still available. Anyway, this place is perfect both for swimming, as well as for snorkeling. Right near the water edge, there is a strip of stones on the sea bottom - with many colored fishes. And it is possible to meet turtles, if you swim a little further away. Shore and seabed: sand, stones. [edit]

Strange, but there are just a few hotels near the beach. Rooms' rates start from US$80, while all decent accommodation options are about US$100 per night.
