La Datcha beach

La Datcha is a beach in the south of Grande Terre island, Guadeloupe. This is not the most beautiful place on the island. There are just a few trees, the water is muddy, and there is a lot of garbage around. However, there are also some advantages. You can swim in the dark due to the night illumination. In addition, this is a popular spot for young people to hang out in bars in the evenings. It is also worth to mention the local Friday market with cheap foods - especially at the closing. Shore and seabed: sand. [edit]
