The horseshoe-shaped Baie de Pompierre is perhaps Terre-de-Haut's loveliest: a reef-protected beach with golden sand and a splendid setting. There are even tame goats that mosey onto the beach and lie down next to sunbathers, as well as a small island to swim out to. The beach is an easy 1.6km walk northeast of Bourg des Saintes, although the walk is steep. There are showers and bathrooms on the beach and plenty of wooden picnicking areas.
