Détail de l'activité

Your guide will be available to answer all of your practical questions. The rendezvous is at 8:15 at the wharf of the Pointe-à-Pitre cruise port. You will leave the capital by crossing the Pont de la Rivière Salée and will go to the left of the butterfly to go up to Sainte-Rose.

You will take a little break at the fishing harbor in Ste-Rose, where you will meet the merry and kind people of Basse Terre. You will then go along the west coast of North Basse Terre towards Deshaies and will go through the Grande Anse beach, one of the most beautiful beaches on the island, with a wonderfully-preserved bay.

You will then go to the botanical garden, formerly owned by Coluche, to admire the lorikeets, greater flamingoes, squirrel monkey, and other wonders in the area. You will be surprised by the balance and grace of these locations in a tree-lined and carefully maintained property. Please note that you must pay an entry fee of 15.5€ per adult.

Your guide will then take the Route de la Traversée to reach your destination safely. It is an extraordinary road with its lush vegetation and freshness which contrasts with the warmth of the seaside.

You will take advantage of this and go bathe in one of the loveliest waterfalls on the island: the cascade aux écrevisses. What better way to finish your getaway than with a session of thalassotherapy in open skies! You will come out fresh and reinvigorated for the rest of your day.

Return at 13:00 to your boat with your head full of memories, radiant skin, and the smile of a completely satisfied visitor.
