Located by the sea on the north-west coast of Grande-Terre, Anse-Bertrand is a popular destination for Guadeloupe residents and tourists who appreciate both its wild environment and its heavenly beaches. While the famous Grande Vigie headland and high limestone cliffs are the hallmark of the municipality, it also attracts visitors to its beaches, like that of Chapelle. A popular spot for surfing and sea kayaking, this lovely white sand beach is perfect for relaxing in the shade of coconut palms and sea grape bushes, after a peaceful swim in the calm waters protected by the coral barrier.

At the northern exit of the town, the beautiful, wilder beach of Anse Laborde is above all a place for a picnic or relaxing break by the Antilles Sea, as the presence of rocks, large rolling waves and strong currents mean it is not suitable for swimming. Weather permitting, you can enjoy a beautiful view over the coasts of the islands of Montserrat and Antigua looming on the horizon!
