Baie Longue (Long Bay)

BEACH | Though it extends over the French Lowlands, from the cliff at La Samanna to La Pointe des Canniers, the island’s longest beach has no facilities or vendors. It’s a great place for a romantic walk, but be aware that getting here isn’t as easy as it once was since you must now pass through Lowlands security. Note that the beach faces westward and can get very hot; there’s no shade from trees, either. This beach is on the leeward, less breezy side of the island. To get here, take National Road 7 south of Marigot. Baie Longue Road is the first entrance to the beach. It’s worth a splurge for lunch or a sunset cocktail at the elegant La Samanna. Amenities: none. Best for: solitude; walking. Note: beach faces westward and can get very hot; there’s no shade from trees, either. This beach is on the leeward, less breezy side of the island.
