We will meet you at the Baie-Mahault marina at 8:30 a.m. Once on board, coffee, juice and water will be served before we set off for Grande Rivière in Goyaves to explore the mangrove swamp and its ecosystems.

You will travel up Guadeloupe’s largest river and enjoy the tranquillity of the surroundings.

The captain will also be your guide, sharing his knowledge of the wildlife and flora of this marine protected area classified as a Cœur de Parc (Park Heart).

We will then cross the Grand Cul-de-Sac Marin Lagoon to reach the Coral Reef.

Enjoy snorkelling to discover the riches of the coral reefs populated by tropical fish, shellfish, crustaceans…

or simply opt for a few strokes around the boat in crystal clear water

Then we will set sail for the islet of La Biche.

The aperitif will be served at La Petite Biche, on a floating bar, with your feet in the water.

Share a moment of conviviality over our famous homemade planteur cocktail…

The surrounding mangroves, a veritable natural nursery, provide shelter for numerous small fish that are easily observable.

Your captain will prepare a local meal for you.

Lunch will be served on board, where you will be comfortably seated and well sheltered:

• Marlin rillettes
• Smoked chicken
• Rice and plantain
• Seasonal fruit
• (drinks: water, wine: rosé)
• Coffee

You will then set off to explore an underwater shipwreck.

Easily accessible, masks and snorkels are all you need to explore this wreck just below the surface.

Enjoy a swim and admire the many tropical fish that have made their home in this unique ecosystem.

Then we will head to Caret Islet. Discover the history and evolution of this small islet of white sand, the jewel of Grand Cul-de-Sac Marin. The islet is currently undergoing revegetation, so landing there is prohibited.

Enjoy this paradisiacal setting where the shallow waters allow you to reach the edge of the islet on foot from the boat.

Take advantage of this special moment to swim in the turquoise sea, when most of the boats have already left… You can also raise a toast to this idyllic day.

On the way back, we will stop in front of Christophe Islet (nicknamed Bird Islet).

Le capitaine saura vous faire découvrir ce site classé Cœur de Parc et réputé pour son avifaune extraordinaire.

You can observe pelicans, frigatebirds, egrets… and perhaps some migratory birds passing through.

We will be back in Baie Mahault at the end of the afternoon.
When you disembark, enriched by all these discoveries, the Grand Cul-de-Sac Marin will hold no more secrets for you…
