Cousteau Reserve: a guide to exploring one of Guadeloupe’s most beautiful marine sites
The Pigeons Islets, the submerged statue of Commander Cousteau, a coral garden and turtles are sure to amaze you. Explore them from the beach, by snorkelling, scuba diving, glass-bottom boat or kayak.
In the heart of the Leeward Coast, opposite Malendure Beach, the Cousteau Reserve is one of Guadeloupe’s most iconic natural sites. Surrounding the Pigeon Islets, its protected waters are home to corals, tropical fish and sea turtles. An unmissable destination for discovering the full richness of Guadeloupe’s seabed.
