Introducing Ste-Anne

The southernmost village on Martinique, Ste-Anne has a sleepy air and an attractive seaside setting with painted wooden houses and numerous trinket shops. Its most popular swimming beach is the long, lovely strand that stretches along the peninsula 800m north of the town center. Despite the large number of visitors that flock to the town on weekends and during the winter season, Ste-Anne remains a casual, low-key place, with abundant near-shore reef formations that make for good snorkeling.

If the beach here is too crowded for you Cap Chevalier is 6km east as the crow flies and beautiful Macabou is 12km northeast.

There’s a small office of tourism kiosk in the town center, near the pier, that has maps of the town and can help with car or hotel arrangements.
