Beaches:
Here is a list of our favorite beaches on the island:
Coralita Bay – it’s walking distance
Dawn Beach – it’s the closest drive-to beach and it’s beautiful!
Gallion Beach – it’s a great beach for young kids or if you like windsurfing.
Ile Pinel – it’s charming but it costs $15 per person for the 2 minutes boat ride.
Baie Rouge – it’s one of the prettiest beaches of the island.
