Plage du Souffleur, Caribbean beach in Port-Louis, Guadeloupe
The Plage du Souffleur extends along white sand shores with transparent waters, offering views of Basse-Terre and Montserrat island in the distance.
The beach area connects to Petit-Canal, where the Steps of Slaves stand as a memorial to the individuals who arrived through the former colonial port.
Local food vendors and trucks serve traditional Guadeloupean specialties like bokit, while the Kabana Beach Restaurant provides contemporary Caribbean dining experiences.
The beach divides into two sections: the main area near the cemetery with facilities and vendors, and a more remote section requiring additional walking.
A mangrove trail starts from the northern parking lot, leading through natural ecosystems where visitors observe native fish, crabs, and birds.

Guadeloupe has many surprises beyond its main beaches and usual tourist sites. The archipelago hosts places where nature and history come together: waterfalls hidden in the rainforest such as Acomat in Pointe-Noire, spectacular geological formations like the Gullet Grand Gouffre in Marie-Galante where sea jets reach over ten meters high, or beaches with distinct features like Anse du Souffleur in Port-Louis with its calm, shallow waters, or Cluny Beach in Sainte-Rose lined with dark volcanic rocks. These lesser-known sites also tell the story of the archipelago. The Slave Trails in Petit-Canal, carved into stone in 1830, bear witness to the island’s painful past. Fort Fleur d'Épée in Gosier, built in the 18th century, offers views over the bay and preserves its old artillery pieces. The Historic Coffee Plantation in Vieux-Habitants showcases the stages of colonial coffee production with its historic water mill. On the natural side, Petite Terre Nature Reserve near La Désirade protects two islands where sea turtles and dozens of fish species live among coral reefs. These sites encourage discovering a different side of Guadeloupe, away from the typical routes.
