Plage de Grande Anse, Black sand beach in Trois-Rivières, Guadeloupe

The long coastal stretch features dark volcanic sand that contrasts with the clear waters of the Caribbean Sea along the southern shore of Basse-Terre.

The black sand composition results from centuries of volcanic activity from La Soufrière, which has shaped the island's geological landscape since ancient times.

Local residents gather on this beach for traditional festivities and family celebrations, maintaining strong connections to their Caribbean heritage.

Visitors can access free parking facilities, public showers, and find natural shade under palm trees that line the beach perimeter.

During clear weather conditions, the beach provides unobstructed views of Les Saintes archipelago rising from the Caribbean waters.
