Anse Noire... An extraordinary beach!

You have fallen under the spell of Martinique, no wonder! The Paradise Island has so much to offer... the welcome of the locals is surely a factor. Are you out of ideas? Although it's quite hard to imagine given the diversity of the island's attractions! Or do you simply not know where to go to relax after a walk by the sea? Don't worry!

We've found the perfect spot for you: Anse Noire beach. The small beach is located in the commune of Anses d'Arlet in the south of Martinique. Even if you are not on the south coast of the island, Anse Noie deserves a visit especially for it. And you will understand why by reading this article!

Black sand like no other

The volcanic sand, one of the few on the island and the only one at the southern beaches, is sure to make an impact. Delight the goth in you with a beautiful beach with black sand and calm turquoise blue waters. It sounds a bit like a landscape from a novel, and it could be! Except that here, it's a reality, and you won't believe your eyes.

The color of the sand at Anse Noire is all the more striking because it is only a few meters from Anse Dufour. Anse du Four, the untanned twin of Anse Noire, has some of the lightest sand on the island!

A marine fauna without equal

So you like diving? Especially snorkeling? Well Anse Noire is THE beach for you! With an incredible aquatic fauna, it would be a shame to miss an afternoon of underwater exploration. At the rendezvous... Multicolored fish and majestic turtles for a moment stolen from the mundanity of the rest of the days of the year. The magic of the underwater world of Anse Noire will charm young and old!

Jump off the cliffs to land in unreal waters rich in local fauna and flora. A little advice: turtles are most often found on the side of the cliffs and not towards the pontoon. No surprise, even turtles prefer a little privacy! So think about doing the same and plan your visit outside of vacations and weekends to enjoy an empty beach. With all that you have just learned about Anse Noire, it is no wonder that everyone likes to come here. Locals and tourists alike come to relax under the coconut trees while admiring the horizon.

Almost unreal calm waters

The clear blue sky, the black sand of the volcanic rock and the large coconut trees lining the shore will amaze you! Take a break for a few hours by diving into the magical waters of the place. The pontoon is there for that! Whether you're in the clear, fresh water or sunbathing on the sand, the view is breathtaking. To tell the truth, you haven't seen anything yet, it's underwater that there is the real treasure to discover.

Are you an adventure lover? Kayaking and hiking await you

At the edge of the beach, you will find a small hut all colored and decorated with jewels. You can rent kayaks for a trip to the water alone, with your partner or with your family. All formulas are good when you are on the island of flowers! The welcome is warm (as everywhere else in Martinique). You will not miss coming back there.

End the day with a bang!

You're on a beautiful beach, on the other side of the world, with a breathtaking landscape. How will you end your day? Well the banana on the cake (no cherries here) is a beautiful sunset. Like you'll never experience anywhere else! Scan the horizon carefully, though. We'll let you in on a secret... The legend of the Caribbean green ray. As the sun disappears behind the sea, if you're lucky... you'll see an emerald green ray sparkle for a moment. The sparkle will disappear as quickly as it appeared. And you will have lived the legend yourself. One more story to take with you to a family dinner.

Anse Noire is waiting for you!

And stories, we are sure you will have a good bunch of them at the end of each stay in Martinique. Whether it's the paradisaical beaches, the historical monuments of the island, the mythical sunsets... (I catch my breath) The waterfalls, the hikes, the flavors, the hospitality or the boat excursions, you will certainly fall under the island's charm. If it is not already the case!
