Gosier island

Gosier is a small "paradise" islet near the southern coast of Guadeloupe. This is a perfect tropical escape - with palms and even with a lighthouse. There is also a small cafe. Unfortunately, in winter, it is overcrowded, and many boats run near the coastline. On the other side, there are too many algae in summer. The snorkeling is not so good, as the corals are dead. Beware of sea urchins! In general, this is a place to visit once - no more. Shore and seabed: sand, stones. [edit]

Hotels [edit]

There are no hotels on Gosier island, while camping is prohibited. However, just nearby - on the big island of Grande Terre, there is a great choice of hotels from US$50 per room.

How to get there [edit]

Fly to Guadeloupe international airport (PTP). Next hire a taxi to the pier of Anse Tabarin. The boat to Gosier island runs every 30 minutes (5 euros for the return).

When to go [edit]

The best time for a holiday on Gosier beach is a dry season from January to June.
