Grand Anse Beach, Caribbean beach in Gros Islet Quarter, Saint Lucia.
The two-and-a-half-mile stretch of white sand beach features clear waters against the northeastern coast of Saint Lucia.
The beach has maintained its natural state throughout centuries, serving as an essential location for local fishing communities since colonial times.
From March to August, the beach transforms into a protected nesting ground where visitors can participate in organized turtle watching programs.
Reaching the beach requires arrangements for transportation via 4x4 vehicle or guided tours due to its remote northeastern location.
The beach serves as a critical nesting site for endangered leatherback turtles, which lay their eggs in the sand during nighttime hours.
