We made a day long road-trip to the north of Grande-Terre, passing through the cities of Petit-Canal, Port-Louis, Anse Bertrand and Le Moule.
In Port-Louis, we went to beach at Plage Du Souffleur.
A little bit south-east of Pointe de la Grande-Vigie (the northern tip of Grande-Terre) there’s a calm lagoon called Porte d’Enfer with the impressive Trou de Madame Coco (Trou a Man Koko) which is supposedly still visited by sorcerers.
Les Saintes is a popular destination of Guadeloupe. With one of the most beautiful bay of the world (supposedly behind Rio and Ha Long), it is packed with nice beaches and lanscapes. The visit to the Fort Napoléon was an opportunity to learn a little bit about the history of the islands and to see half the island from a vantage point.
One popular way of travelling around the main island, Terre de Haut, is scooters (cars are almost non-existant). But with many slopes and bumpy roads, caution is advised.
No pictures today. Aline and I visited the “Franjack” today and it was our best dive ever. So many fishes in one spot, it was really impressive.
On a side note that shouldn’t discourage other divers, the dive stopped somewhat abruptly when our instructor got bitten by a 9-feet green moray.
This was the last dive of our courses.
Close to my niece’s school, it’s a nice place to go for a walk or run (Aline, Pierre and I usually go there). The path passes through a mangrove and a beach.
I tried some spearfishing this morning near Petit Canal. This one stayed still a little too much.
