5 miles from Guadeloupe’s southern coast is the island
La Désirade which many visitors consider to be the ideal
place to relax and unwind. Delightful beaches, quiet
and secluded is one of the reasons to visit and Grande
Montagne, the highest point on the island is a great
place to get panoramic views of the surroundings. The
island has an abundance of cacti and you will also see
iguanas lazing around while you explore.

Guadeloupe
The French Caribbean Archipelago
Les Saintes - Heavenly!
Basse Terre - Majestic!
Lush vegetation, mountainous with a rich
ecosystem and the home of La Soufriere
volcano.
Marie Galante - Authentic!
The largest of the islands, the place where
rum reigns and sandy beaches beckon
Consisting of nine islands, two of which
are inhabited (Terre de Haut and Terre
de Bas), the bays are beautiful and the
food is delightful.
Grande Terre - Fascinating!
Beautiful beaches, resorts and
restaurants adorn this island of rich
heritage.
La Désirade - Pristine!
Relatively untouched with quiet
simplicity, lovely beaches and
spectacular coral reefs.
