The contrast in sand color makes these neighboring beaches worth treating separately. At Anse Noire, trees shade the cove and the underwater setting draws snorkellers, while the descent involves many steps. Carry what you need down the stairway and judge water conditions on arrival; the beach’s appearance does not guarantee a safe swim.
