Guide
Approach and anchoring
Sand in about 3 metres with good holding. Sheltered from west round through north to east, open to the south. Visitors report a roll when the swell wraps round the headlands.
Practical
No services. The beach is reached by land only down a steep road, so it stays quiet; bring everything from Gustavia.
Ashore
A coastal footpath links Gouverneur to Grande Saline, about 4.5 km there and back over rocky ground, 1.5 to 2 hours.
