Pointe Marin Beach

Like most southern beaches, it offers a safe place to swim. The gentle waves, shallow water and transparency make it an ideal place for children to swim. Older children will appreciate the many water activities available on the bay.

The beach of Pointe Marin is very well equipped. It is lined with restaurants and bars. It's a place to relax and enjoy water activities with friends or family. In the evening, the site offers a view of a splendid sunset that will end this good day.

The beach of the Pointe Marin

The beach stretches over a kilometer and a half between the cemetery of the village of Sainte Anne and the Club Med Les Boucaniers. It offers a real postcard setting with its fine blond sand, bordered by calm and clear waters. The shallow water makes it a privileged swimming spot if you are a family with children.

The coconut and grape trees that line the beach will allow you to sit in the shade, or to hang your hammock quietly. Some people even take advantage of the shade to play petanque. From the beach you can enjoy a view of the hills and the Diamond Rock. And if you stay until the evening, the sunset from the beach is splendid!

Activities available

You can take advantage of your visit to practice nautical activities. Indeed, the popularity of the beach and its proximity to Club Med have attracted many clubs. For example, you can take off from the pontoon, which marks the entrance to Club Med, for a water ski tour. If you're not into water skiing, there are other options. Don't hesitate to contact the rental companies on the beach: windsurfers, jet skis, catamarans, kayaks... You'll find what you're looking for to enjoy the clear waters of the bay.

For scuba diving enthusiasts, several clubs will take you to discover the bay's seabed or the Diamond Rock. If you prefer to stay on the surface, the clear waters will facilitate your snorkeling exploration, but the seabed is less interesting than on other beaches.

In general, the beach is very lively with families and groups of friends. The street vendors that crisscross the beach complete the picture. They offer pareos, swimsuits, costume jewelry and other souvenirs from the island of flowers.

Eating on the beach

It will not be difficult to find a place to eat or drink around the beach. The surroundings are well developed and there are plenty of bars, snack bars and restaurants along the beach. It's a good opportunity to have lunch by the sea and to taste some good Creole food or the catch of the day. In the evening, you can admire the beautiful sunset while enjoying a cocktail. Made with local agricultural rum of course!

The beach stays alive in the evening as some of these restaurants offer entertainment with live music or local DJs. The opportunity to test your swing on local or international music.
